Here’s a brief overview of our classes this semester:

Understanding Hell - Marty Payton

In this study we will examine three historical Christian views of hell.

Pain, Suffering and Sadness in Light of the Cross - Brylan Gann

How do we weather pain, suffering and sadness in our lives as Christians? How do we answer the questions that plague us in the storms? How can we answer others when they ask how we have faith in light of evil and suffering around us?

Being Imitators of Christ- Rich Erdman

In this six week course we will work together through the ways God's Word teaches us to Imitate Christ  (1 Cor. 11: 1, Eph. 5, Phi. 1:27) living in a manner worthy of the gospel. There is hope for us all!!! We will find it together. Our main focus will be Proverbs 15, 16, 17, 18, and 19 ... See you soon ... Let's Go!!!

Gospel 101: What It Is and How To Share It - Jacob Cibas

What is the Gospel? What seems like a simple question is often met with all kinds of answers. In Gospel 101, participants will learn what the good news of Jesus is by walking through the GOSPEL acronym, learning a new component each week. In addition, participants will learn how to share the Gospel with others through different evangelism methods. The goal for anyone attending Gospel 101 is to finish the class feeling confident in their understanding of the Gospel and how to explain it to someone else.

Book Club: Gentle and Lowly by Dane Ortlund - Fisher Furr

Book Club is a new core class in Charity University designed to help our church slow down, read deeply, and grow together through rich, gospel-shaping books. This semester, we’ll walk through Gentle and Lowly, a powerful exploration of the heart of Christ for sinners and sufferers. Each week will blend guided discussion, biblical theology, and thoughtful application as we consider who Jesus truly is: gentle, compassionate, and welcoming to the weary. Whether you’re new to theology or well-seasoned in it, this class aims to deepen your love for Christ and strengthen your everyday faith.
