ACTS: The Spread of the Gospel
The book of Acts is a carefully-recorded history of the explosive spread of the gospel and the rapid growth of the church after Christ’s ascension. In one of the most tumultuous, violent and dramatic books in the entire Bible, Acts starts with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, without which the young church could never have survived the unleashing of rage and prejudice towards these radical followers of The Way.
Throughout Acts, God shows His infinite power regardless of the circumstances, just as He continues to do today.

Freedom in Christ: Discipleship Course
This course is designed to help every Christian become a fruitful disciple and make their life count. Teaching sessions reveal who we are in Christ and the reality of the spiritual world. Includes a special ministry component that helps Christians turn to Jesus through repentance and faith. The final key is “stronghold busting” being transformed by the renewing of our minds. This course has helped Christians of all backgrounds from new believers to those who’ve followed Jesus for many years! ($10 cost for course materials)

Basic Christianity
Who is Jesus Christ? While Jesus and his teaching continue to hold appeal, many people question the plausibility or relevance of the Christian faith. Is it reasonable to believe that Jesus was truly divine? If so, what does it mean for us? This study will examine the historical facts on which Christianity stands, present a biblical portrait of Christ, and consider what it looks like to become and live as a Christian.
This group is open to all but will be especially helpful to those exploring or new to the Christian faith!
