Classes

“Love God” calls us to know more about God and what God wants for us.

You can’t love what you don’t know. Here at SHPC we offer a wide variety of classes and bible studies that aim to deepen our understanding of who God is and how we can live into all that God desires for us.

Art + Faith: Creating in Fellowship

Friday, May 17th | 7-8:30 PM | KIDS Building

Come join us for time to create together in fellowship! Less formal than our other Art + Faith sessions, this meeting is designated time for us to create together in community. Come for an evening to be with other artists and creators, and have time to sit and work on whatever project you have in progress or start something new! Any kind of creative project you can transport yourself and are able to set up and clean up after is just fine. I will also bring some extra supplies (paper, watercolors, colored pencils, etc) if you don't have something you want to bring from home but still want to join us.

Jesus In The Gospels

Mondays | 10:30AM | Adult Portable 

Jesus in the Gospels in a 30-week study that will be offered in two sessions. This study focuses on the portraits of Jesus found in the four Gospels. The word in used in the title signals that this study takes an approach different from the familiar “life and teaching of Jesus” approach of reading stories and accounts of what Jesus said and did in order to draw conclusions of their meaning about who Jesus was. This study looks at the way each Gospel writer presents events and teaching and at the picture of Jesus that emerges in each of the Gospels.

Bible Studies

Mary Martha Circle

First Thursdays | 1:30PM | Hybrid

Our goal is to be conformed to the image of Jesus and discover the extravagant hope Jesus has for each of us—in the past, in the present, and in the future: this is a revelation of Jesus Christ.
