About Us

Christianity Explored

Our Christianity Explored class is a safe, no-pressure opportunity for you to learn more about the Bible and Jesus. Our class is designed for people who are not Christians, so we encourage you to learn and ask as many questions as you wish! This is why we called the class Christianity Explored--we want to give you the opportunity to explore Christianity in a safe and fun place.

We begin each class with a FREE dinner. We also have a special class for kids.

More Information about Our Classes

We alternate each semester with one of the classes below. Each class is organized with international students and scholars in mind, which means we try to slow down our presentations or use subtitles so that those using English as a second language can follow our discussions.

1. Christianity Explored (CE) is the starting point for many to investigate Christianity in an informal small group setting. Using the Book of Mark, we will look at the life of Jesus and His claims. Everyone is welcome – especially the inquisitive or the convinced skeptic. Questions are encouraged, you can ask as many questions as you want, at any time during the course.

2. Bible Explored. This series is a chronological look at the major Bible stories in the Old and New Testaments. Most of our time covers stories from the Old Testament and to discover how they point forward to Jesus.

Interested? Know of someone else who might also be interested? All are welcome to attend. There is no cost for the meal or class materials. Invite a friend and plan on joining us for ten weeks of Bible study and encouraging conversation.
