The Character of God: Greatness
Behold, the nations are like a drop from a bucket, and are accounted as the dust on the scales; behold, he takes up the coastlands like fine dust.
Isaiah 40:14 (ESV)
Sunday School - The purpose of our Sunday School ministry is to teach God’s word to children and to adults, and to help them enter into and grow in a vital relationship with Jesus Christ. On Sunday mornings at 9:45, Grace Baptist Church provides a complete, graded Sunday School program for children, ages 2 through high school, as well as a college class and adult classes. The adults are on a five-year schedule of elective classes which run for three months each. At the end of five years, our adults will have studied a wide range of topics needed for substantial spiritual growth.
This five-year lay out of Biblical curriculum for adults is a multi-track, comprehensive approach to Christian growth through a well-balanced diet of teaching of doctrine, devotion, and practice. The subjects, by virtue of their one organic source of life and truth from the Holy Scripture and the God of that Scripture, do overlap and intertwine. The courses are designed to fill the heart, the mind and the life with God-glorifying instruction and encouragement to make the child of God more fruitful as a servant of God. Some of the more practical courses are repeated in the five years in order to provide for a maximum of participation in those courses.
13 Courses on the Christian Life (Spiritual Disciplines, Evangelism, Prayer, Practicing Godliness, Marriage, Parenting, and Work and Money)
3 Courses featuring Bible Overviews (Old Testament Survey, New Testament Survey, and Biblical Theology of the Covenants)
8 Courses on Church History and Theology (The Confession of Faith, the Five Points of Calvinism, Ten Commandments, Church History, Apologetics and Worldviews, Missions, and False Religions)
4 Courses on the Church (Doctrine of the Church, Worship and the Ordinances, and Living as a Church)
12 Courses of Scripture Study (Genesis 1-11, the life of Elijah, the life of David, Minor Prophets, The Parables, Romans, Ephesians, Pastoral Epistles, James, 1 Peter, 1- 3 John, and Revelation)
