Adult Learning
We never "graduate" from learning about or exploring our relationship with God. Engaging the Bible, learning the teachings of the Church, delving deeper into our spiritual practices and learning how to meet the challenges of life through faith are constant needs. We offer a variety of opportunities to learn and grow in faith for adults. We invite you to take advantage of these so that you can become the person God calls you to be in even new ways.

Upcoming Sessions
The Book of Job
Using books by Justo Gonzalez and Richerd Rohr we take a deep dive into this enigmatic book of wisdom to understand God, humanity and suffering.
Desiring the Kingdom (Cultural Liturgies): Worship, Worldview, and Cultural Formation
Philosopher James K. A. Smith reshapes the very project of Christian education in Desiring the Kingdom. The book focuses education on the themes of liturgy, formation, and desire. Smith's ultimate purpose is to re-vision Christian education as a formative process that redirects our desire toward God's kingdom and its vision of flourishing. In the same way, he re-visions Christian worship as a pedagogical practice that trains our love.
The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius:
There are many strands of spirituality within Christian faith. The Ignatian tradition (Jesuits) are a lasting and powerful voice.
The Gospel of John
Amy Jill Levine’s latest book with a video presentation. “With her characteristic wit and charm, Amy-Jill Levine introduces readers to the world of the Gospel of John by unpacking the stories in their original context, along with examining how the text is read today. This book considers the Gospel of John in its entirety, moving through the Gospel and exploring the prologue, the wedding at Cana, the Samaritan woman at the well and the woman caught in adultery, the healing of the man at the pool and the man born blind, foot washing, Mary Magdalene and Doubting Thomas, and the Lamb of God.”
