Moving Beyond Application Questions
For the first time in my Bible class experience we actually had application during Bible class this morning. The background of what we did is too much to cover in this post but will probably talk about more later. Our 20s & 30s class has decided that talking about our faith isn’t enough. We have […]

Changing Sunday School
Our 20s & 30s class is seriously considering changing the way we do Sunday school. It is not that we want less Bible study it is more that we need a time and place where we can plan to make a real difference. I am not sure how all this is going to work out […]

In a previous post I made the point that major points of Christian faith and doctrine are going untaught in our churches.

It is a HUGE challenge trying to figure out which Bible class and small group curriculum to purchase. Let’s make a list of the curriculum we have used that we know are quality. Most of us don’t like tossing large amounts of money at something from our church education budgets unless we know it is […]
Communicate Your Assumptions
The church I grew up in knew why we worshiped. We knew why we had Bible class. We knew that if the doors were opened we were going to be there. We didn’t need much explanation because we had been doing these things since we were little. Fortunately and unfortunately many in congregations today did […]

Bible Class Blogging
We all know that 1-2 hours a week to grow our faith isn’t sufficient. I have been feeling the pull for a while to find ways to help people grow and continue the discussions once Bible class has ended. One of the things I am going to try is a blog for our 20s & […]
