The Joy Class studies the Adult Bible Study which is a comprehensive Bible study plan with spiritual practices to deepen your relationship with God.
Each quarter, the Joy Class has a new theme to study.
March 2 – May 25:
Embracing Life – This spring, our Bible lessons follow the theme “Exclusion and Embrace.” They offer a series of lessons in two units during Lent and the weeks following that encourage us to consider what we need to let go of and what we need to take on as followers of Jesus.
