Adult Education

The overall mission of our ministry team is to encourage spiritual growth, learning and discipleship. We thus develop, supervise, and publicize Adult Education classes on biblical, theological, historical, social, and cultural perspectives of the Christian faith, ensuring that a balanced and broad selection of programs is provided. We also appreciate and affirm TUC's commitment to diversity and a multicultural environment.
Our team coordinates curricula with other Ministry teams (Women's Ministry, Evangelism Ministry, etc.), and develops and promotes other Christian learning opportunities for adults. Classes and activities are held throughout the week, but particularly on Sundays. Classes on Sunday morning, from 9:45 to 10:45, include Bible studies as well as studies on special topics such as those on 'Hospitality', on 'Spiritual Gifts' and the 'Poetry class’ held last year. Adult Education leaders are guest lecturers, TUC pastors, or members of the Congregation.

Here a summary of Adult Education Events coming up:

April 7-May 12--The Jesus I Never Knew by Philip Yancey......2F Classroom

Come explore a new and different perspective on the life of Christ and his work
—his teachings, his miracles, his death & resurrection—and ultimately, who he was and why he came.
Philip Yancey presents a complex character who generates questions as well as answers;
a disturbing and exhilarating Jesus who wants to radically transform your life and stretch your faith.

Please join us for this DVD based study, including plenty of time for conversation and reflection.
