    • Expand the knowledge and practice of your faith within a small-group context, and discover a safe place to ask questions, explore some doubts and dig into difficult subjects. This class has recently been going through the history of the Church, from Christ to modern day, with the goal of better understanding the Church universal — including why we see so many Protestant denominations today and the origins and distinctions of United Methodism. For those with kids, Covenant has the nursery available at this time as well as classes for preschool through Grade 5. 
    • Room 208
    • Facilitator: Joel Schwartz
  • Agape Class (10:00am)
    • On January 14th we will begin a new study, Multiplying Love: a Vision of United Methodist Life Together, by Paul W. Chilcote. Rev. Chilcote is a United Methodist elder who has pastored United Methodist congregations, taught theology and Wesleyan studies at several U.M. Theological schools, and is now a Research Fellow at Cambridge, England. His book "underscores what matters most and stands in contrast to divisive misreadings of essential Methodist teachings. [He] helps us embrace anew the Wesleyan vision of love of Jesus as central to what we believe and how we live."
    • Room 105 & 107
    • Facilitator: Judy Rice
  • Discovery Group (10:00am)
    • The Discovery Group continues the series on the Creation Stories of Genesis.  In this study, we will discuss how the stories are similar and how they are different; how they describe human relationships with God, with other humans, with the earth, and with all of creation; and how this gives guidance to our lives today.

  • Faith Discovery (10:00am)
