For those with a hearty appetite and a thirst for knowledge, these dishes will satisfy! Like a hearty steak with all the sides, you’ll find these studies spiritually filling and faith-nurturing!
The Crucible (Isaiah 48:10 & Zechariah 13:9) As silver must be put through fire to be refined, this class will challenge you to grow with tough questions and introspection by examining key elements of Christian life. Learn to seek out areas where your heart is hard, to pray more often and more genuinely, to study God's word, and to see people as God sees them.

Love Dare
Maintaining a happy marriage is harder than you thought, right? This study is drawn from the movie Fireproof.

Learn how to reinforce and enrich your marriage through class time instruction and daily devotionals.
Prayer: Does it Make Any Difference?

Jesus I Never Knew
An old adage says, "God created man in His own image and man has been returning the favor ever since.” How does the Jesus of the New Testament compare to the Jesus we think we know so well? Best-selling author Phillip Yancey says, 'The Jesus I got to know in writing this book is very different from the Jesus I learned about in Sunday School. In some ways he is more comforting; in some ways more terrifying.' Join this study and learn what he discovered.
