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).
September 13 - October 18 "UP" Classes
How to Interpret the Bible – “The Bible is written for us, but not to us.” This thought-provoking statement from Bible scholar John Walton highlights an important key to understanding Scripture. While it's natural to ask, “What does this verse or passage mean to me?”, faithful interpretation begins by asking what the biblical authors were communicating to their original audience. This class draws from Walton's Wisdom for Faithful Reading to help participants learn practical principles for understanding and applying the Bible more accurately and confidently. Led by Brandon Lemons in Room 2.
The Power of the Holy Spirit’s Names – The Holy Spirit is the most misunderstood member of the Trinity. Yet He serves the crucial role of empowering individual Christians and churches to fulfill God’s calling. Utilizing Bible study, discussion, and video-based teaching from Tony Evans, this class digs into the ways the Holy Spirit is described in Scripture – Helper, Lord, Wine, Intercessor, Seal, and Power – to help us understand His characteristics, duties, and mission. Led by Jesse Bennett 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!
