In Quest\, we dig deep and learn the basics of Christian theology in a large group setting. We cover topics like God\, sin\, Jesus\, the Bible\, and salvation. Basically\, we explore why we believe what we believe. This class is deeper and more intellectual than our regular Wednesday night and Sunday morning programs. The registration cost helps to pay for a workbook that students will be given on the first night. \nStudents should bring a paper copy of the Bible and a writing utensil for every session. \nQuest will meet in Room 109 except for December 6\, which will be off-site. More details will be shared later. \nQuestions?
