LIFE CLASSES Begin This Sunday, January 22 9:00 AM

Life Classes are offered to help us apply the gospel to all of life. Each semester we offer classes that will equip you by grounding you in Scripture, theology, or the Christian life. Our Spring 2023 semester begins THIS SUNDAY. Here are the classes we’re offering (more information here). Will you join us?

•  Untangling Emotions

“I feel . . .” The words we say next are important and reveal what we believe about our emotions and God. Explore why emotions are a gift from God and critical to the Christian life by understanding what they are, what they reveal, how to engage them, how to navigate them faithfully, and help people in your life do the same.

•   Reading the Gospels
The four gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) have profoundly shaped the church from the time of their writing. In narrating the life and death (and resurrection!) of the Lord Jesus, the gospels offer an authoritative and complementary portrait of history’s most important person. This class will survey some of the key features of the gospels in general, while also digging into some of the specifics of each gospel.

•  Leyendo los Evangelios | Spanish Life Class
Los cuatro evangelios (Mateo, Marcos, Lucas y Juan) han formado profundamente la iglesia desde el momento que se fueron escrito. Al narrar la vida y la muerte (¡y la resurrección!) del Señor Jesús, los evangelios ofrecen un retrato autorizado y complementario de la persona más importante de la historia. Esta clase examinará algunas de las características clave de los evangelios en general, al tiempo que profundizará en algunos de los detalles específicos de cada evangelio.

•  Kid’s Life Class: The Gospel Project for Kids
In addition to our adult Life Classes (9 am), we offer one Kids’ Life Class for children (K-5th grade). In our Kids’ Life Class, we utilize The Gospel Project that walks kids through the sweep of biblical redemptive history. This Kids’ Life Class is available whenever the adult classes are taking place.

•  Meaningful Membership Class
The first step in pursuing membership at High Pointe is to attend the membership class. The class can be completed over the course of three sessions, which cover the following topics:

• What is the church & why should I Join?
• What does High Pointe believe?
• What do you need to know about High Pointe?
• What does High Pointe expect of church members?

PM Prayer Service | THIS Sunday, January 22 | 5:00 PM
Make every effort to join us as we gather to pray for God’s name to be exalted, his kingdom to be expanded, and his will to be embraced. We will also pray for all we need – as a church and as individuals, along with praying for one another. Our prayer gatherings are our family time –when we hear from one another and pray together.
