SALT (Sharing And Learning Together)
S.A.L.T. stands for Sharing And Learning Together—and that’s the heart of this class. With equal emphasis on Bible study and fellowship, we welcome ALL. Join us 15 minutes early for coffee and meet friends you haven’t met yet! From 20-something’s to seniors, we share a desire to know more. We study the Bible, worship God, and seek to live like Jesus. Come as you are—no preparation required. For more information contact Kathy Draper at kathydraper1011@gmail.com.
Bible Study Class
The Bible Study Class covers various topics rooted in the text of the Bible and focused on the history of the Bible’s text and its ongoing historical interpretations from the biblical era to today. Topics are typically covered in short (one- to two-month) series and are taught by a rotating group of class members. We meet at 9:30 and begin discussion at 9:45. All are welcome. For more information contact Stephen Smith at stephenbsmith@gmail.com.
IRL – In Real Life
IRL is a class made up of people from all ages and stages of life who are seeking to find ways that faith intersects with real life. We cover topics like parenting, loss, relationships, sexuality, aging, love, marriage, work, and forgiveness in hopes of developing authentic relationships as we bring our questions, concerns, and struggles to one another.
Awakenings
Each week features an interactive conversation on what Jesus described as essential to awakened human relationships: Justice – Mercy – Faith. Through personal story, the inspiration of Scripture, the Enneagram of spirituality, and more, we help one another in the ongoing inner work that leads to more awakened action in our personal relationships and in our wider communities of influence. For more information contact Art Wimberly at art@thrivebham.com or Jessica Yarbrough at jessicay731@gmail.com.
Ecclesia-Wingard
We are a diverse group of open-minded believers, ranging in age from 35-90, including several retired United Methodist ministers. In addition to a wonderful roster of teachers from within the class, we host a variety of outside speakers. While our lessons come primarily from the Scriptures, we also enjoy presentations on a wide range of topics (books, outreach programs, service opportunities). We gather at 9:30 to visit and chat, with the bell ringing to order at 9:45. All are welcome! For more information contact Lisa Malone at lgmalone508@gmail.com.
