Adult Education

To fully know God in this life is to know Him through the Scriptures.

NOTE: Adult education classes (with the exception of God Connects) take a break for the summer. Sunday morning classes will resume on August 24. Weekday classes will resume in September.

All adults -- young and seasoned -- are invited and encouraged to participate in Bible study at Immanuel. Sunday morning at 9:30 a.m. — the Education Hour — is a great time for parents to engage in God’s Word while kids are engaged in their respective classes.  Tuesdays are also a great opportunity to study God’s Word.  Join us each week!

Please e-mail Don Kearley if you have any questions about the studies offered: dkearley@immanuelcl.org

SUNDAY STUDIES — 9:30 a.m.

  • Mid-Pointe - The Gospel of John

    Sundays at 9:30am | Music Room | Various Presenters

    Mid-Pointe is a large group adult Bible study with a variety of presenters that cover family, social, moral, and theological topics.  This study is designed to grow you in your knowledge of the things of God, strengthen your faith, and protect your family so you can defend the Christian faith and share Jesus to a lost and dying world.

    On August 24 we will begin a series that will explore the Gospel of John and its place in the New Testament.  This Gospel is unique from the other three Gospel accounts as it provides a deeper insight to Jesus as both God and the Son of God.  Join us for this study and grow closer to God through the reading and discussion of key passages in this beautiful Gospel account.

  • Digging Deep- Hard Questions

    Sundays at 9:30am | Room 201 (Immanuel, 2nd Floor) | Led by Raymond Monroe

    Our Christian faith sometimes bumps up against hard questions and oversimplified answers don’t help.  Some of these questions include, How can God who predestined all, change His mind?  How can prayer work?  How is Jesus God and man?  How do we understand the immigrant, the stranger?  Join us for this Bible study as we discuss some of these hard questions and search God’s Word together to provide satisfying answers for your mind and soul.

WEEKDAY BIBLE STUDIES

  • The Book of Romans

    Tuesdays 9:30 - 10:30 a.m. - Begins September 9 | The Pointe Outreach Center | Led by Pastor Larry Tieman

    Romans is a foundational book that lays out the great teachings of the Christian faith.  Some of the topics covered include: the condition and resulting dilemma of mankind; the characteristics of God that govern our future; why we need God’s salvation; and how the believer is freed from sin, law, and death to live a victorious Spirit filled life. A practical book, Romans answers questions all believers face, such as: What is the good news of the Gospel of God and what does it mean? How important is obedience and sin in the Christian life? After salvation, how do we overcome our sinful desires and live a victorious life free from bondage?  Join this Bible study and learn what God has to say in one of the most important books in the Bible on the essential truths of the Chirstian faith.

  • The Book of Ezekiel

    Every other Tuesday 6:30 – 8:30 p.m. | Room 204 Main Campus | Led by Don Kearley

    The Book of Ezekiel proclaims God's uncompromising judgment against his rebellious people - but also his promise of restoration if they repent.  The Old Testament book named after him portrays how Ezekiel sought to trust God and consistently obey Him despite difficult circumstances. Ezekiel expressed to God his honest reactions, emotions, and questions. He trusted in the Lord, and the Lord gave him strength, courage, and faithfulness. Witness Ezekiel's rugged relationship with God, and let his example lead you into a deeper, more heartfelt relationship of your own.  Join us for this study and come to understand the incredible visions that Ezekiel experienced and what they reveal about God’s wonderful plan – past, present, and future.

  • Women's Bible Study - Book of Ruth

    Tuesdays 8:15-9:30am | The Well | Led by Laura Wright | Meets every other week

     The book of Ruth is a love story between Ruth and Boaz, one that illustrates the love and loyalty between God and His people, and it emphasizes God's unfailing love, loyalty, and faithfulness in all circumstances.  It will encourage you to have the kindness of Ruth and Boaz. Join this Bible study and gain fresh insights into this most beloved story and be amazed by God's unfailing faithfulness once again.
