Mountain Brook Presbyterian church offers several adult education classes on Sunday mornings as well as Wednesday nights.

Christian Education Opportunities for Adults

 

S U N D A Y  M O R N I N G S  at 9:30 a.m.

       

The Adventure Class led by Larry Harper meets in the Reception Room. They are studying the book of Genesis. They are using The Mighty Acts of God by Arnold Rhodes as a resource, but go into more detail in their study.

 

The Other Class meets in the Pastor's Classroom in the Administration    Building and is led by Rev. Cary Speaker. They are using the book, The Greatest Prayer: Rediscovering the Revolutionary Message of THE LORD'S PRAYER by John Dominic Crossan. The Lord's Prayer is one of the best known and most loved prayers in the world. Christians may disagree about a lot of things, but they all seem to find deep and abiding meaning, strength and spiritual sustenance in this prayer. Even though we recite this prayer weekly, do we truly understand what it is we are saying as we offer this prayer? In Crossan's new book, he invites readers through eight thought-provoking chapters, exploring one phrase in the famous prayer after another.

Tuesday Mornings at 10:00 a.m.

This study group is using the Kerygma publication Psalms: Passion, Promise and Praise. This book explores the richness of the Psalms in terms of spirituality, personal growth, and worship. Everyone is invited to attend.

Friday Mornings at 7:30 a.m.

The Gospel of Matthew is the focus of this Bible study. This Bible study does not demand homework. It will help if you have read the text for the day before you arrive, but even that should not stop you from joining. The style of this study is "slow and steady." Everyone is welcome.
