Sunday Classes

Sunday Classes provide members and friends of Covenant Life Church with a steady diet of in-depth teaching in the critical areas of the Bible, theology (both doctrinal and practical) and church history. Taught by members of the pastoral team, all classes are designed to further your knowledge and understanding of who God is.

Sunday Classes are part of a core curriculum that stretches over three to four years. The plan is to cover all of the Bible and important theological topics, and enable you to track your progress through the sequence of classes.

  • You don’t have to be a scholar to benefit.
  • The classes are aimed at everyone high school age and up.
  • All that is required is a hunger to learn and a willingness to consider what you are hearing.
  • See below for info on the current class.

February Class

“Discipleship: The Church’s Great Commission”

Dates: February 5, 12, 19, 26
Times: 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. and 11 a.m. to noon
(NOTE: No registration is required for this class.)
Location: Room 156
Instructor: Ben Wikner

Jesus commands in the Great Commission to “go and make disciples.” As disciples, Jesus calls us to follow him, not merely to accept him. Yet the lack of discipleship in the church today has caused some to quip that we are witnessing the “Great Omission.”

In light of the central place of discipleship to the Christian life, we need to know what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ. And we need to learn how to grow as disciples as well as how to become fruitful disciple-makers.

In this four-week class, Ben will explore the biblical texts that make clear why discipleship is so important in God’s plan and how we can grow in both being and making disciples.
