As we study the great heroes of the faith in the book of Hebrews, this class will focus on the women of the Bible who both inspire and challenge us. There are great examples of women whose lives demonstrated deep faith, perseverance, hope, confidence, and courage in the midst of trials. We will also look at the “great cloud of witnesses” that surround us. Women we have known in our lifetime who have inspired us to live, “by faith”. Come prepared to share with others in the class the women who inspire you! Teacher: Sara Young Jackson

I love running with my neighbors in Track Town USA. Five marathons later, you could say I’ve been assimilated into the “runners religion.” ⁣Every race comes with the anticipation for the next mile marker, the next aid station, the next smile, the next “you got this,” and the next familiar friend cheering you on. ⁣It’s painful to push through cramps and sore muscles. It takes dedication to place one foot in front of the other for another mile. You can’t pretend in a marathon. It exacts a toll. ⁣Perhaps, like me, you’ve hit a wall. It’s mile 14, and you’re collapsing, or muscles are seizing up, and you just hope to finish.⁣ I only finished #2 & #3 because I chose to lay down and do some stretches mid-race and because my wife was there to cheer me on when I was ready to give up. ⁣True humility is gained from the curbs of life when our pride and independence fail us. Life and leadership involves pushing through more than 26.2 miles - remember, just like the old Nike slogan goes: there is no finish line.⁣ Teacher: Lars Coburn

Millennials are facing crisis in four defining areas of life: Relationships, Mental Health, Meaning and Purpose and Faith, let’s help the next generation experience all God has for them. Teacher: Stanley Winters

Have you ever felt like life has left you feeling like you can’t catch a break? You keep experiencing loss after loss, whether it is from losing loved ones or experiencing disappointments that you are having a hard time shaking, If this sounds familiar I want you to know that you are not alone. There is some hope and good news, scripture shows us that through all of our hurts, God still pursues us, he still finds ways to let us know that we have purpose and that when we allow ourselves to see him in the struggle that there is also room for joy in our lament. Teacher: Ghavinn Crutcher
