At Cityview, we believe in the importance of lifelong learning.
We provide a variety of classes during our Explore Hour (Sundays at 9:15a) that will help enrich your understanding of the faith. These classes promote spiritual growth, theological and biblical insight, and ministry development, all of which will help you to become a mature and equipped follower of Christ.
We offer certain classes regularly, such as our Membership and Spiritual Gifts classes. We also offer a variety of electives, typically offering one class each quarter in these five tracks:
The Well
Introduction to the faith and the church for those investigating Christianity or Cityview
Berea
Inductive study of different books of the Bible
Tyrannus
Training for personal ministry (outreach, discipleship, etc.) and leadership
Areopagus
Our most rigorous classes intellectually, centering on theology and apologetics
The Portico
Practical instruction on topics like parenting, marriage, finances, and the like
The following electives are offered beginning Apr 7:
You Are a Theologian: An Invitation to Know and Love God Well (Areopagus) ♦ Blue Room
Do you have questions about theology? “What is it?” “Who does it?” “What happens if I get it wrong?” Theology can feel intimidating. But it doesn’t have to be. Whether conversations about theology have felt out of reach, over your head, or irrelevant, consider this class an invitation to the dialogue.
Explore the Bible: Genesis 20-50 (Berea) ♦ Yellow Room
In Genesis 20–50, readers get a deep dive into one particular family: the descendants of Abraham. Through these patriarchs, God built the nation of Israel and established a line to the Savior. What’s more, their examples of faith continue to resonate with Christ-followers today.
Reconciled: A Biblical Approach to Racial Unity (Tyrannus) ♦ Red Room
Many Christians want to stand for racial unity, but they don’t know how. And many approaches to racial reconciliation create more problems than they solve. This study draws from Scripture to promote a solid approach to racial unity, one that is deeply grounded in historic Christianity. It will help you understand the biblical model for unity and give you practical ways to live out this model in your everyday life.
Women: Bible Study of the Gospel of Luke (Berea) ♦ Room 208
Everything Jesus did was through being connected to the Father, and it made a difference in his responses to others. What do we learn about the Father from Jesus’ actions and how does it relate to us remaining connected to Jesus in all that we do and say?
