Session 1 Classes: August 17 and 24, September 21 and 28, and October 5 

The Leader’s Journey – Bob Burns and Steve Hobson, S212
You can’t lead others to transformation until you are experiencing it yourself. Bob and Steve will lead an exploration of how the Biblical principles found in the book The Leader’s Journey apply to leadership in whatever context you find yourself.  Reading the book is not required.

1 Peter – Mark Whipple and Andrew Carlson, S203-204
In this book Peter is writing to Christians who find themselves outside the center of their culture. In our post-Christian society this is also where we often find ourselves. Together we will grapple with how the gospel enables us to live joyfully, courageously and winsomely as outsiders.

Theological Foundation for Leaders – Module #1 – Todd Rust, S206
Theological Foundations for Leaders (TFL) presents the foundational beliefs of our faith and how they apply to our lives.  In this module, we will introduce you to TFL and focus on the doctrines of Scripture, God, Creation, and works versus grace. This class is open to everyone, but we encourage those involved in teaching or leadership roles to attend. Plan to spend about 30 minutes each week with the material.

Men’s Class: Man in the Mirror – Jed Busbee, Steve Jones, and Ray Toher, S202
Jed, Steve, and Ray will lead a discussion of Patrick Morley’s updated and expanded book The Man in the Mirror. Each week, they will guide men to reflect on their lives, identify their challenges, and make the changes necessary to love God, themselves, and others.  Reading the book is not required. This class runs until Christmas.

Women’s PrayerJulie Burson, Julie Johnson, and Gail Stepp, S205
Join with other women to explore what Scripture says about adoration, thanksgiving, lament, intercession and petition. We’ll spend time with each of these facets that form the framework for a meaningful prayer life. This class is not limited in number, but is for ladies only.

September 7 | Combined SMC: Quarterly Town Hall

Each quarter, we gather as a church family to be encouraged by receiving updates from the various ministries within our congregation, hear a current financial report, and discuss plans for the upcoming months. There will also be an opportunity for you to ask questions.

September 12-14 | Parenting Seminar with Erik Potter

Parenting adolescents in today’s culture presents unique challenges, including navigating social media’s impact, managing academic pressures, and fostering healthy communication amidst rapid physical and emotional changes. Our children face increased pressures related to identity, peer influence, and mental well-being. Meanwhile, as Christian parents (and grandparents) we must adapt our approaches to discipline and support while we disciple our children from a Biblical perspective. Come hear from local counselor, Erik Potter as he shares hard-earned wisdom on how to navigate these challenges. The Friday evening/Saturday morning seminar has a $15 registration charge and childcare will be provided. All are welcome to attend the Sunday morning session.
