Sunday Morning Adult Education

Sundays at 10:05 am

  • Meet in Pastor Krista's office
  • Join us as we explore scripture, basing our study on Anna Carter Florence's book "A is for Alabaster". Each week, we will dig into a different scripture by taking some lesser-known characters, objects, and even animals as our starting point. By doing so, we will discover how much there is to gain from starting small and how sometimes, when we don't look small, we miss the details of what God is doing.
