Adult Sabbath School

Current Adult Sabbath School Lesson:

The adult Sabbath School lessons are prepared by the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists, usually by one of the scholars or theologians of the church. These lessons are published in the Adult Sabbath School Bible Study Guide which is published quarterly and provided free to each student. To study online, click the link in the previous sentence.

This quarter our Study Guide is entitled "In the Crucible with Christ." Jesus did not preach the "health and wealth gospel" that some televangelists are pushing today. He never promised that the Christian life would be an easy one. On the contrary, He promised us tribulation in this world, but our tribulation is not without hope: In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. (John 16:33 KJV).

This quarter we will look at the stories in God's word of those people of faith who have faced despair, disappointment, discouragement, abuse, betrayal, and injustice. How did they handle these tribulations? And how does God come close to us in difficult times as He sustains us through all we must face? We can see how much God cares when we realize that He was willing to go to the cross to suffer and die for us to bring us healing and hope.

Join us this quarter as we study together how God can work through the tribulations we face to bring us closer to Him and His kingdom.

Sabbath school classes are the heartbeat of our church community. Each week we spend time learning from Scripture and from each other. The adult Sabbath School class is led by Dr. Ken McNulty using PowerPoint presentations to help students understand the information of the lesson and help focus discussion that will apply important biblical truths from the lesson to our lives.

Our Sabbath school fellowship begins at 11:00 a.m. Children's classes begin immediately while adult Sabbath school opens with a short program in the sanctuary which can consist of singing, inspirational thoughts, mission stories, and special features. After the opening program, the adult class is taught in the sanctuary beginning at about 11:15 am.
