Adult Ministries
Designed to help people follow Jesus together, experience the life change that Jesus offers, and invest in others' spiritual growth.
Sunday Morning Classes
Classes are chosen to help us grow in the three types of authentic relationships that are important to us at Friedens: our relationship with God (UP), our relationships with other believers (IN), and our relationships in the community and world, particularly with those who do not have a relationship with Jesus Christ (OUT).
November 1 - December 13 features two "IN" Classes
Classes may be joined any week!
(No classes 11/29 or 12/20-1/3)
Forgiveness – Forgiving someone who has hurt you can be one of life’s hardest challenges. How do we release resentment and move toward peace? In this Scripture-saturated class, we’ll explore what forgiveness is (and isn’t), how God’s grace toward us empowers us to forgive others, and how to entrust justice to Him rather than seek revenge. Forgiving others can be difficult, but it’s one of the healthiest and most God-glorifying things we can do! Led by Brandon Lemons in Room 2.
Found in the Fight – Ever tried to fake it ’til you make it? We can be tempted to hide who we are or manipulate people and situations to get ahead. Why do we do this? Because we long for acceptance and approval. This video-based class explores Jacob’s riveting, far-from-perfect life and how wrestling with God transformed his understanding of his identity. Like Jacob, when we stop deceiving ourselves and others, we’re free to become who God created us to be and build healthier relationships. Led by Bruce & Maggie Barr in Room 3.
Growth Groups & Bible Studies
It is vital for Christians to regularly meet with other Christians to help each other grow as followers of Jesus. Small groups and Bible studies meet throughout the week and enable people to study and apply Scripture to their lives, pray for one another, hold one another accountable, and laugh and share life together.
If you'd like to learn more about finding a small group outside of our normal sign-up periods (typically Aug./Sept. and Jan.), please contact us.
Men's, Women's, & Family Ministries
Friedens' Men's and Women's Ministries offer opportunities to connect and grow through social activities, service projects, conferences, and more.
Because Friedens values multi-generational ministry, we also have many activities that are geared for the entire family to enjoy: potluck meals, Christmas caroling, game nights, photo scavenger hunts, and more.
& More!
