Adult Sunday School meets at 9:30 a.m. during the school year. Nursery care and Sunday School for children and youth happen simultaneously. Offerings vary from discussions of book and video resources to Bible study and special presentations of current topics and events.

  • Beyond the Dream: The Life and Legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr. for Contemporary Christians
  • Book studies on Being Mortal by Atul Gawande, An Altar in the World by Barbara Brown Taylor, and Pastors Sound Off: Causes We Can't Keep Quiet About
  • Courses on gender identity, aging, Christmas carols, understanding the Bible
