EUM CHURCH OFFERS WINTER CLASSES

There is just something about a fresh start of a new year that gives us the feeling of a new beginning. Start out your new year at EUM Church as they are hosting several classes that offer enrichment for your spiritual life. Find out how God can work in your life to give you a new start and spiritual growth! These classes include:

• Christianity 101 – Take this class to get grounded in the basics of the Christian faith and begin to grow spiritual roots that will sustain you in your walk with Jesus Christ. It will help you lay a spiritual foundation and understand what it means to love God fully and love others as yourself. Discover six spiritual practices that will help you become a fully submitted follower of Christ.
• Financial Peace University (FPU) – We all need a plan for our money. Financial Peace University (FPU) is that plan! It teaches God's ways of handling money. Through video teaching, class discussions and interactive small group activities, FPU presents biblical, practical steps to get from where you are to where you've dreamed you could be. This plan will show you how to get rid of debt, manage your money, spend and save wisely, and much more!
• Biblical & Early Church History – During this class, we will be taking a look at the historical significance of the world during biblical times, the implications of culture during biblical times and the history of the early church.
• God’s Kingdom – What is the Kingdom of Heaven? What is the Kingdom of God? Find out if there is a difference between the Kingdoms and what they have to do with you, the church and what we may conclude God wants us to do with what we learn!
• Know Your Enemy – "Know your enemy" is easily and certainly one of the most interesting historical and factual treatments that exposes what is generally not seen: "the powers that be" that are behind politics and religious institutions that can be found just about everywhere throughout the world. Learn and explore history, the world religions, our money system, the many wars and revolutions as well as the coming New World Order from a biblical perspective.
• Truth Project – In a recent study, the Barna Research Group revealed that only 9 percent of professing Christians have a biblical worldview. Because of this, today's believers live very similarly to non-believers. A personal sense of significance is rarely experienced, we spend our money and time on things that fail to satisfy and we begin to wonder what life's ultimate purpose really is. We are, in short, losing our bearings as a people and a nation. To counter this slide, this study is the starting point for looking at life from a biblical perspective. Each lesson discusses in great detail the relevance and importance of living the Christian worldview in daily life.
• Women’s Bible Study: Breathe—Making Room for the Sabbath – One of the greatest challenges among women in our culture is taking time to stop and cease from all the activities and busyness and just breathe. We are in bondage to busyness. By neglecting time for tranquility, serenity, and repose, we limit our Christlikeness and miss out on some of God's greatest gifts. If you are weary, worn out and exhausted, the concept of Sabbath will change your life.
• Women’s Bible Study: Bad Girls of the Bible: And What We Can Learn From Them – In looking at what we can learn from biblical women gone bad "Bad Girls of the Bible" brings to life ancient stories and unforgettably reveals how timeless truths of the Bible apply to today's woman.
• Women’s Bible Study: What Love Is: the Letters of 1, 2, 3 John – The letters of 1, 2, & 3 John were written to encourage followers of Jesus to remain faithful to the truth. Believers are challenged to look at contrasting themes such as walking in the light instead of darkness, truth versus lies and deception, loving God more than loving the world, and the meaning of true fellowship and community rather than shallowness. This study reveals not only the heart of John but also the heart of Jesus.
• Men’s Bible Study: 33 Series – Authentic Manhood is all about setting men up to live lives of truth, passion and purpose. We offer clear and practical Biblical insights on God’s design for manhood that are both refreshing and inspiring. “33 The Series” is a multi-volume, gospel-centered video series that presents the timeless truths of Authentic Manhood in a powerfully new and engaging way. It includes new insightful teaching, inspiring testimonies, expert interviews and multiple creative features. As a man experiences the different volumes of 33, he will find himself building a vision for Authentic Manhood in his own life that is built on the gospel of Jesus Christ and was modeled by Him in His 33 years on earth. All men are welcome!
