Have you ever wondered how to draw near to God? In this class, we will explore the ways that God has given us in His word to draw near to Him. These ways to draw near are called spiritual disciplines. Several of us know about these disciplines such as prayer, fasting, and community, and have questions about how to walk them out. Wherever you are on the journey, this class will equip you to have a greater understanding and practice of drawing near to God with all your heart.

What does it look like to have financial freedom? Do you wonder how to be a good steward of your resources? How do we honor God with our resources and participate in His mission? These are common questions that many of us wrestle with. Join us on the journey of freedom in financial stewardship.
Over a short period of time, a real community was formed. Our common thread was a deep desire to grow and gain wisdom from the Bible. The course gave me a greater capability to understand God’s Word and apply it.
I feel more on fire to get into the Living Word every day. I highly recommend this program to anyone who feels like they aren’t getting enough out of their daily Bible time. It will help the words on the pages come to life!
