Each winter we offer six week elective classes to help you grow in your faith.
It’s a unique opportunity to connect with others at East White Oak, while learning about a topic that interests you. All adults are invited! Adult Bible Fellowships will resume March 23.
9:00 AM Electives
The Engagement Project / Room 174
Led by Ron Miller. Having a biblical worldview is essential for a Christian but insufficient on its own. What more is there? Join us as we explore the incredible reality that God has entrusted to the common, everyday Christian—the work of the Kingdom. You have a God-assigned sphere of influence, your neighbors.
Apologetics II / Banquet Room
Led by Wyn Boerckel. We will explore reasons to be confident in the hope that we have, like the reliability of the New Testament and how morality and biology declare God’s glory. We will respond to objections like the problem of divine hiddenness and the narrowness of Christian sexual ethics. We’ll also discuss how to present the content of apologetics to unbelieving friends and family members in a winsome way.
Effective Parenting in a Defective World / Room 172
Led by Jeff & Jennifer Huettemann. What if you could draw closer to your kids even in a world intent on pulling you apart? It is possible, all while teaching your kids critical values like responsibility and perseverance. In this elective you will learn biblical principles and practical advice from pastor and father of four Chip Ingram. Each video teaching session will be complemented by discussion and application.
Discovering Membership / Room 126
Led by EWOBC Elders. Examine the focus and history of the church, doctrine, ordinances, and the devotional life. This is the next step for anyone pursuing church membership.
10:30 AM Electives
Knowing God: Foundations / Room 174
Led by Tom Kelly. “What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us.” (AW Tozer) Systematic Theology is a way of studying the Bible topically. We will explore information from Genesis to Revelation in a systematic way focusing on the attributes of God (Paterology), the person and work of Christ (Christology) and the Holy Spirit (Pneumatology).
The Essentials of Finishing Well / Room 171
Led by Pastor Jeff VanGoethem. For retirement age people and those nearing retirement who want to finish well. This will be an encouraging examination of several biblical principles related to growing older and finishing well, using teaching, video and discussion.
