Ministries: Sunday School

All Sunday School Classes are at 9:15am

2, 3 John
Taught by Pastor Dan in Chapel

The focus of 2 John is that false teachers were conducting an itinerant ministry among John’s congregations, seeking to make converts, and taking advantage of Christian hospitality to advance their cause.  As with 2 John, 3 John focuses on the basic issue of hospitality but from a different perspective. While 2 John warns against showing hospitality to false teachers, 3 John condemns the lack of hospitality shown to faithful ministers of the Word.  The whole issue of who do we take in and befriend and who do we reject and cast out has always been a hot topic.  Together, we will learn how John instructs us to live to be a faithful witness and to keep pure Christ’s church. Pastor Dan’s class will meet in the Chapel.

 

The Gospel of Matthew
Taught by Mark Huss in B-1

Matthew means “gift of the Lord,” and his book is nothing less.  Matthew records five major discourses: the Sermon on the Mount; the commissioning of the apostles; the parables about the kingdom; a discourse about the childlikeness of the believer; and the discourse on His second coming. A long opening section and a short conclusion, bracket the rest of the gospel, which naturally divides into five sections, each with a discourse and a narrative section. The conflict between Christ and the Pharisees, the rejection of Israel’s Messiah,  and Christ as a victorious King who will one day return “on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory” (24:30), are all prominent themes in the gospel.  Matthew will meet in room B-1.
