ADULT CHRISTIAN FORMATION

Spring 2009 Elective Shuffle

 

The classes listed below will be offered during the Christian Formation Hour on Sunday mornings, from April 19 through May 17.

 

New Members Class

Facilitators:  Pastor Michael White, Elders

Are you thinking of joining HCC as a member? Come and get to know HCC and the Covenant.

 

Finances In Challenging Times

Facilitators:  Karl Sahlin, Rik Jamieson

Take Scripture, blend financial backgrounds and add personal experiences and you have the recipe for a class on dealing with our finances. This forum will discuss topics such as the crunch of current economics, God’s provisions and living within our means, family budgets and dealing with debt. This class is timely and practical.
 

 

In His Image

Facilitator: Don Olson

Was Adam a primitive caveman, or was there a difference between the human of Genesis uniquely created in the image of God and the many species of bipedal hominids roaming the earth ages ago?   Drawing from God’s Word and remarkable new scientific discoveries of God’s world, this class will equip you to answer those who think we descended from the apes.  We will also look at how God with great care and love prepared the earth as a home for man created in God’s image.

 

The Heart of Service

Facilitator:  Dick Hampton

If you have wondered about getting involved in service, this is a chance to hear how others like you got started. In an interview format, we will hear about the experiences of people in our church who are involved in a surprising variety of official ministries and informal serving relationships. Rather than a nuts and bolts report about services performed, or a recruiting effort for more workers, this class is more like peeling back the layers to get at the heart of service. What surprising discoveries, what fears and frustrations, what changes occur in the heart of the one who serves?

 

Why Men Hate Going to Church

Facilitators:  Mike Mongeau, George Makari

It's Sunday Morning….where are all the men?  Watching TV? Golfing? Mowing the lawn?  Sleeping?  One place you won't find them is in church.  According to the book by this same title, less than 40% of adults in most churches are men, and 20 - 25% of married churchgoing women attend without their husbands.  And why are many men who go to church bored?  Why won't they let God change their hearts?  Aimed at both men and women, this class will try to answer those questions in an interactive way.
