SUMMARY:Sunday Night Theology
DESCRIPTION:Does the Bible Really Say That? Do the phrases we say or repeat as Christians always line up with Scripture? In our next Sunday Night Theology lecture\, Dr. Brian Payne invites us to take a closer look at a few of the familiar phrases and clichés we often repeat in church life. Are they truly biblical\, or have we accepted expressions more shaped by poor theology\, a low view of God\, or culture rather than by Scripture? Does our language distort who God is and what Christ has done for us? Join us for a thoughtful and challenging look at the words and phrases that have unfortunately become the “norm” in the American Church. Brian Payne comes to us from Auburn\, AL where he is the Lead Pastor of Lakeview Baptist Church.  He is also one of our teens’ favorite speakers from the D3 Youth Conference they attend each summer.  SNT lectures are held monthly\, on 2nd Sundays\, in the Sanctuary. More details here.

SUMMARY:New Adult Elective
DESCRIPTION:Sundays\, 10:05-11:00amSeptember 21 – December 14\, 2025 \n\n\n\n1) Joy: Happiness of the Heart – The Bible challenges us to “rejoice always\,” but that can sound impossible at times. Thankfully\, God never commands us to do something that can’t be accomplished with the Holy Spirit’s help. Join us as we consider how God’s Word can help us cultivate a heart of joy. Taught by Pastor Mike and various teachers. Meets in gym-south. \n\n\n\n2) 1 & 2 Thessalonians – Paul’s letters to the Thessalonian church offer guidance\, encouragement\, and reassurance to early believers. Their message still speaks powerfully to us today. Thought to be among the earliest New Testament writings\, these letters remind us how to live faithfully as we look forward to Christ’s promised return. Join us as we explore these timeless truths and grow together in our Christian walk. Taught by Scott Holwick\, Tom Pagliughi\, Chris Riedy. Meets in gym-north.

SUMMARY:Sunday Night Theology
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our next Sunday Night Theology as Sawyer Moranville presents\, “Volcanic Words: Why the Blue Collar Worker Should Care about Bible Translation.” Some words and phrases are volcanic; they can start revolutions\, alter generations and change history books. Yet with time\, even powerful words can become distorted. Context fades. Culture shifts. A new generation arises\, unfamiliar with the moments that gave these phrases their fire. That’s why every generation must return to the Scriptures themselves\, not just to the theologians who quoted them. We must recover not just the words\, but their meanings by looking at their sources and contexts. Sawyer serves as Director of Youth Education at Graterford BFC and is the founder of Lingua Deo Gloria Ministries.  See our online schedule for more details as well as upcoming dates\, speakers\, and topics.  Sunday Night Theology seminars are held monthly\, on 2nd Sundays\, in the Sanctuary.

SUMMARY:New Class for Adults & Teens
DESCRIPTION:What does it truly mean to love your neighbor as yourself? How do we take the love of Christ beyond the walls of the church and share it with those around us—our neighbors\, co-workers\, classmates\, and extended family? Do we genuinely desire to live this out? These are the kinds of questions we’ll explore together in the “Neighboring” class for adults & teens. Join us as we look to God’s Word for answers and practical guidance. Meets in gym-south\, various teachers. (The Daniel class will continue in the gym-north\, and will conclude on Sept 7.)

SUMMARY:Sunday Night Theology
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our next Sunday Night Theology as Alex Kocman presents\, “Ordered to Love: Balancing Love for Home and the World.” In Christian life\, how do we faithfully love both our neighbor next door and the nations across the globe? Many today feel pulled between two instincts: one calls us to global missions\, mercy\, and outreach; the other urges us to care for family\, community\, and country. Can we do both—without compromise? This lecture explores the Christian “order of loves” (ordo amoris) and how Scripture and church history can help us rightly order our affections\, balancing local loyalty with God’s global call. See our online schedule for more details as well as upcoming dates\, speakers\, and topics.  Sunday Night Theology seminars are held monthly\, on 2nd Sundays\, in the Sanctuary.
