Special classes are designed to meet the challenges of life. Practical and Biblical answers are provided for such areas as marriage, childrearing, finances, worry, anger management, etc.
The Situation
People are hungry for real answers to the problems of life. They desire stronger marriages, deeper friendships, and more meaningful careers. They want to impact the people they love and make a difference in the world around them. They long for lives of purpose and significance. For many, however, the desire for this type of life seems more like a distant dream than an attainable reality. The demands on their schedules and the pressures of daily living leave them wondering, "Will I ever have time for the things that really matter?" And when searching for answers, there seems to be no end to the differences of opinion among supposed experts. This situation causes many to conclude that the life they yearn for is beyond their grasp.
The Hope
For over 85 years, our church has been connecting people with real problems to real answers from the Word of God. Driven by the conviction that the Scriptures have the answers to life's problems, we seek to apply God's wisdom to people's struggles in practical ways. Over the years, we have seen lives transformed, marriages on the brink of divorce restored, families in turmoil experince peace, and those enslaved in addiction set free. There is great hope!
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord. "Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future" (Jeremiah 29:11).
The Purpose
We want people to know and experience the rich, fulfilling life that God has planned for them. For this reason, we have planned the Life Application Classes to benefit your life for God's glory. We sincerely hope that you will make plans to be involved.
Life Application Classes meet on Wednesday nights at 7:00 p.m. during the Spring and Fall months. Children and teens will begin at 6:45 p.m.
