Core Discipleship (CD) Courses
We believe that by knowing God’s word we will be “thoroughly equipped for every good work” (2 Timothy 3:16). CD Courses are offered at 9:00AM and 10:45AM every Sunday and cover a wide variety of topics. Teachers aim to uncover biblical truths that equip participants to grow in their love of God.

God's Design for Sexuality in a Changing Culture
9:00AM | Room 202 | May 5 - August 25 (except June 30)
w/ Garrett Spitz and Team

The Ten Commandments
10:45AM | Room 202 | May 5 - June 23
w/ Glenn Farrar
Right after the Lord freed the Israelites from slavery in Egypt, He gave them the Ten Commandments in a very dramatic display at Mount Sinai. Just twelve chapters later they built a golden calf and started bowing down to it. If Israel could not keep the commandments back then and we are saved by God's grace today, do we still even need these rules? What do these commandments really mean and how do they apply to 21st century Christians? Join us to find out!
