Teen Youth Group

New Adult Sunday School Class
The adult Sunday morning class begins a new study this Sunday: Lost Christianities: Christian Scriptures and the Battles over Authentication. Why did some Scriptures “make the cut” and others didn’t? How did “orthodox” Christianity become established? The classes begin with a 30 minute DVD lecture by Prof. Bart Ehrman, followed by discussion. Join us!
