Adult Sunday School Classes
During the school year, adults at GracePoint can choose from a wide variety of Sunday morning classes. Most of these groups have members of a similar age and life stage; however, any adult can attend any community regardless of age. Whether you are new to GracePoint or you've been around for a while and are ready for a new challenge, please feel free to read through the class descriptions below and visit several classes before landing on the one that seems right for you.

Primary attendees: 30s and 40s (all adults welcome!)
Class Leaders: Ryan Mick & John Wentz
The wonderful New Testament book of Galatians is the continued focus for the winter/spring. Pulse provides a terrific mix of teaching and discussion around tables, which has the side benefit of helping you get to know others at GracePoint.
Primary attendees: Senior Adults (all adults welcome!)
Fall Teacher: Dr. Randy Nelson
Randy Nelson, Chair of Biblical and Theological Studies at Northwestern, will be back teaching on the topic Suffering in the Life of Faith. Randy will explore the Biblical theme of suffering: what it is, what we do about it, how God is at work in it, and how God uses us when others suffer.
Primary attendees: Multi-generational (all adults welcome!)
Class Leader: Ted Jacobson
We hear a lot of sermons but don’t often get to ask questions and discuss them. The Journey Class provides a terrific sermon-based study and discussion. They will study and discuss the insightful book of Hebrews since that is Pastor Jared’s focus for the winter/spring.
Primary attendees: Multi-generational (all adults welcome!)
Class Leaders: Ron Carey & Randy Johnson
The highly acclaimed tv series The Chosen, a Biblically-based cinematic depiction about the life and teachings of Christ, will be viewed and discussed. If you haven’t had access or time to view The Chosen, this will be a great opportunity to do so.
GracePoint Women
A variety of activities are offered to develop servant leaders through teaching, companionship and mentorship, encouragement, prayer, service and outreach with the goal for all women to become complete in Christ. In addition to the bi-weekly Bible studies that meet during the school year, our ladies all look forward to various retreats and events held throughout the year as well. Each fall and spring during the school year our Women’s Ministry launches several different Bible studies. The studies are usually offered on Monday evenings and, with a Mom’s Group that meets on Thursday mornings. Check our our events and Bible studies below.
