Sunday School Going Deep

Starting next week, August 21, we're making a few minor changes in Sunday School.  For the past several years our students have been doing what we call "topical" studies on Sunday mornings.  Basically they've been studying 4-week units based on things like forgiveness, loving others, peer pressure, etc... While these studies are perfectly fine and relevant, we felt they were more suited for our Wednesday night programming.  We certainly didn't want to do "topical" studies on both Sunday mornings and Wednesday nights....we know how well that would work with our students attention spans right??

So we're changing Sunday mornings.....no more "topical" studies....instead our students are going to be going through books of the Bible, starting with Romans.  For the next 3 months, our youth will be studying the book of Romans from chapter 1 all the way through chapter 16.  Students and teachers are going to be diving into the Scriptures a lot deeper than we have been over the last several years....no more pulling out a few verses here and a few verses there, but instead our students will learn what it looks like to study a book from start to finish.

We are confident that students are going to be impacted by going deeper into the word of God and we're excited to see the growth that God has in store for our teachers, our students and our student ministry!  We'll keep you guys updated on what we're hearing from our students and teachers and please let us know what your youth are saying at home about what's going on up in The Attic!
