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
Explore Hour does not meet on April 20.
The following electives are offered beginning April 27:
Hope Explored (Areopagus) ♦ Blue Room
There are few emotions more powerful than hope. But these days, hope often feels hard to come by. Where can we find a hope that won’t disappoint us? Looking at the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus in Luke’s Gospel, this three-session series shows that Christianity is about real hope: a joyful expectation for the future, based on true events in the past, which changes everything about my present.
One Holy, Catholic, Apostolic Church (Areopagus) ♦ MPR
There are a lot of denominations out there, and it’s tough to keep track of them. What are the major divides? What are the distinctive beliefs? In this five-week class, you’ll get a brief introduction to Eastern Orthodoxy, Roman Catholicism, and a number of broad denominational streams within Protestantism.
Women: Gospel of Luke (Berea) ♦ Room 208 ♦ Continues year-round
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?
