The Book of Colossians
Every Wed, Apr 12–May 17 @ 12-1p
Facilitator: Leon Brooks III, Campus Pastor
The Book of Colossians, one of the Prison Epistles, was written by the Apostle Paul. The book was written to address doctrinal heresy that was creeping into the church at Colossae. As a result of studying this book, each person will leave with a better understanding of Jesus Christ and have a closer walk with Him.

Cost: $10 for Participant Book (to be received at first session)

The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry
Every Wed, Apr 12–May 17 @ 6:30-7:45p
Facilitator: Jakora Snow, College and Young Adults Director
"We are all busy. Some of us can't remember the last time we rested or even had free time. Our busyness can feel productive, but it is a toxic distraction, sapping our spiritual, physical, and emotional vitality. It may seem like we have no choice but to live at a frantic pace, but God has a better path for us.
Join pastor and author John Mark Comer in this… series as he addresses one of the greatest threats to our spiritual lives: hurry. Instead of allowing our calendars and screens to control our lives, Jesus offers us a new rhythm of life, overflowing with grace, peace, and beauty.”
Each video will provide ample time for discussion and practical thought through the topics at hand. Additionally, while this series is based on Comer’s book, book purchase is not required for this class.
Marriage Class: Cherish
Every Wed, Apr 12–May 17 @ 6:30-7:45p
Facilitators: Leon Brooks III & LaShawn Brooks
Are you a married couple that would love to invest in your marriage? Or are you an engaged couple that would like to get a head start on what's expected in marriage? If so, this is the class for you! Come be part of this class as we will go through Gary Thomas's book "Cherish." Come learn what it means to cherish your spouse. Join us for this six-week study.

HUB MidLink
Every Wed, Apr 12–May 17 @ 6:30-7:45p
During the Spring MidLink, the HUB will go through a new series called "Simplify". The new series aims to explore what Jesus said matters most when it comes to our faith in a way that is easy to understand. Faith can often feel complicated, but what if it could be simpler? By the end of these four weeks, we’ll all be able to breathe a little easier, knowing that Jesus came not to complicate but to simplify what it means to have faith in God.
In the remaining 2 sessions, we will discuss topics chosen by parents and leaders that are believed to be essential to be talked to the students.
First Kids Spring MidLink
Every Wed, Apr 12–May 17 @ 6:30-7:45p
First Kids will be studying the fruit of the spirit, self-control. We trust God no matter what. Even when we face unexpected circumstances, we can respond to them with self-control. We can trust that God is working. As we follow Jesus throughout our lives, the holy spirit helps us live more like Jesus. The Holy Spirit can give us the power and wisdom to show self-control.
First Friends Preschool will be studying the stories that Jesus told. Jesus is indeed the master storyteller, and there is nothing better than Story Time with Him. When Jesus starts talking, it's time to listen. Because Jesus taught me important things.
