Beyond Worship:
Sunday Morning Discipleship at First
Extend your worship experience by being part of a Sunday morning class. In addition to our program for children and youth, we have 11 different classes for adults every Sunday! In each, we focus on engaging God’s Word and enjoying fellowship with God’s people. These smaller “congregational communities” offer a home for sharing lives as well as learning. It is here that a true sense of community can be built. We have one class at 8:45 for those attending the early morning chapel service. Ten others meet during the discipleship hour between the sanctuary services. There’s one for every age, stage and taste.

Join us in an exploration of God's Word.
College/Young Adults 10:15 EB201
Kyle Beall, Genesis
The Young Adult Class is a gathering of the bold and the beautiful. We study the Scriptures, talk about life, and hang out with one another. We eat well and always get out early. (That's my best pitch for coming to the class!)
CrossRoads Class 10:15 EB202
Barry Phillips, T.U.L.I.P.
T.U.L.I.P. It's not a flower. This acronym summarizes five points at which the Armenians chose to oppose Calvinists. They've come to be widely known as the five points of Calvinism. Come and dig deeper.
Ed Grant/Rene Williamson 10:00 Chapel
Chuck Barber, Heirs to the Promise, Galatians 3:15-18; 4:1-7
A class designed for adults focusing on Biblical studies.
Lecture Class 10:00 EB301

Foundations 10:15 SB203
Kevin Landreneau & Hank Mills, Discovering God's Will - by Andy Stanley
This class is a combination of 30-55 year-olds combining the Builders group with the Foundations group. It is created to attract those who may be going to Sunday School or Bible study for the first time with an emphasis on the Scriptures, caring for one another and living out our faith.
Kingdom Builders 10:15 SB201
Laurie Adams, God Redeems what is Broken, Nehemiah 1-4; 6-9
This is a class designed to equip you as parents to pass on the gospel to your children. It is also a community of people, in Christ, who share similar life situations (i.e. drive mini-vans and watch tee ball, and yes, even if you're driving an SUV, it's just a mini-van with bigger wheels). I hope you will stop by this Sunday and try this new class!
Spirit Walk 10:15 Flynt Office
Alvin Smith, Little Faith, Matthew 6:30
This class is for adults of any age who want to more deeply put Christian principles into practice in their daily lives. “If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.”
