Class News and Interesting Stuff

This week was the first of three weeks of lessons brought to us (via video) by Francis Chan,  former pastor of Cornerstone Community Church in Simi Valley, CA.  This week he explored the importance of the Bible as the foundation and ultimate guide for Christians.  Join us for the next two weeks as we hear Chan's thoughts related to "Fellowship" and "The Holy Spirit." 

Special Projects
