DAILY CLASS CHOICES
You will be asked to rank your top ten choices from these selections, with number 1 being your highest preference. Please choose ten different classes. We will do our best to give you your top six choices on your schedule. You will have these classes every day at the same time.
Beth–More Bible Analogies-God created so many things in our physical world to teach us deeper spiritual lessons. Sometimes we can become disconnected from some of the metaphors and analogies in the Bible due to our cultural differences. We will spend time again this year exploring four more metaphors/analogies to help us understand the intended lessons.
Gary–Life of David
Simon–Revelation: Kingdom Victorious
Cindy–Ruth-The book of Ruth gives us encouragement to live a godly life even when those around us are not. We will look at Ruth’s character, God’s care and learn how Ruth’s story points us to Jesus.
Marie–Jesus’ parables-Jesus’ parables are like spiritual maps for kingdom citizens. They illustrate lessons to be relived again and again by reading, recollecting and reflection; pathways that lead us in the practice of living as Jesus would have us live, often remapping our hearts, moving us the direction of knowing Him more fully.
Camellia–Women of the Kingdom-We will be looking at women in the scriptures who became part of the Kingdom and what we can learn from them.
Teresa–What is the Kingdom?-If we are to seek it first, we must know what we are seeking! What did Jesus mean when He said, “The kingdom of heaven is at hand”? Wasn’t God always king? What is the difference in the kingdom of Israel in the OT to the kingdom in the New? We will answer these and other essential questions about the kingdom of God.
Julie–Redeeming The Time – In today’s world of so many opportunities, it can be difficult to choose the best use of your time. This class will focus on God’s gift of time, His guidance in Scripture, and practical applications to improve our time management as Christian women.
Kelly–Daniel-How can we determine to serve God when it is difficult, when it seems like we’re the only one, when it is intimidating, when it requires more courage than we think we have, when it might cause physical harm, when we don’t know how it will turn out, when all around us is evil, when we don’t completely understand? Let’s study about an all wise and powerful God, who is in control, despite what it looks like around us and who is worthy of our praise, service and sacrifice.
Rachel–Singing Through the Psalms-When the psalms were originally written, they were songs that the people and individuals sang. Now, we have a book that put all them to tunes we are familiar with! In class, we will read and talk about several psalms each day, and then sing them together!
Nichole–Prayer and Making Prayer Journals
Amy – Hiding the Word in Your Heart – Making items to help children memorize scripture and to help teach children’s bible classes.
Crafts – Learn a variety of crafts that make great gifts and keepsakes.
Singing – Spend a period singing hymns.
Kitchen Help – Washing dishes/dining hall cleanup after one of the meals.
Bunk – Spend a period having quiet time in your bunk.
Outdoor Rec – Games and other outside activities.
EVENING CLASS CHOICES
These classes will meet only one time. You will have two classes Monday evening and two Tuesday evening. Please choose six options, ranking your first choice as #1, and we will try to give you your top four if possible.
Simon–What does it mean to “seek His righteousness”?
Annie–Kingdom Citizens: A Holy Nation-How can we live out this title given to citizens of Zion, instead of wasting the gift of being God’s holy nation like citizens of Israel did?
Kaitlin–Kingdom Citizens: Do Justice, Love Mercy-These two ideas can seem like they are at odds, even opposites. How do we act justly and mercifully? How does that effect our relationships with the people around us and specifically people in the church? We will look at these ideas and discuss how to live out this desire that God has for us to, “Do justice and love mercy.”
Sara Beth–Kingdom Citizens: Walk Humbly with Your God-Biblical and practical examples of what walking in humility does and doesn’t look like.
Nichole– Kingdom Work-Evangelism
Sharon– Kingdom Work-Being an Encourager
Megan–Kingdom Enemies-Withstanding Worldly Philosophies-What are some of the prevalent worldly philosophies? How can they creep in without me knowing it? Does social media play a part in this? How can I be on guard and wise about these ideas?
Ashley–Kingdom Enemies–Desires of the Flesh-a study on what happens when we live and do what we want instead of being led by the Spirit
BJ–Kingdom Blessings-Peace and Joy
Teresa-Kingdom Blessings-The Inheritance of Glory-Who will we be when raised from the dead or changed when our King Jesus returns? What does it mean to be an heir of Heaven, a joint heir with Christ? What is our inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and won’t fade away?
Lindsey– Kingdom Blessings-The Armor of God
