Senior Adults Sunday School

Please join us Sunday mornings at 9 o’clock for our “Advanced Bible Study”.

Our current study, “Staying True in a World Far From God”, runs from September 3, 2023 to October 8, 2023.

The following introduction comes from the “Bible Studies for Life, Advanced Bible Study for Adults”, published by Lifeway:

“Daniel in the lion’s den is but one snapshot from the life of a prophet who remained faithful when kings and companions challenged him to forsake God. The book of Daniel portrays him as unashamed, unwavering, and unwilling to compromise in his devotion to God.

One behavior that stands out to the reader is Daniel’s faithfulness in prayer. Another is his willingness to show courage. Daniel thus serves as a model for believers who want to stand strong today, despite the world’s disapproval and opposition – or even its resentfulness and animosity. Daniel remained unashamedly faithful; we can too.”

Our lessons consist of the following:

Our study this week focuses on Exodus 34:1 – 9. The main point is God never calls us to do something that is outside His character. It is helpful to look at the Exodus story for the background to this lesson. However, there is too much material to cover during a 50 minute class, so here are 3 Youtube videos that provide a good background on the Exodus story.
