Adult Bible Communities
Growing in Discipleship
Praying, studying God's word, and growing in discipleship.
The adult Sunday school ministry of Bethany (“Adult Bible Communities” or simply ABC’s) gathers weekly at 9:00 & 10:30am to pray, teach God’s Word, grow in discipleship, and serve in the church together. Our ABC’s aim to apply God’s word to life’s circumstances in a cross-generational, discipleship-focused environment.
It’s easy to feel lost in a large church, so we want to make it simple for everyone to get connected with other believers. This list of classes is a great starting point. When you decide to try one out, there’s no need to RSVP — just show up this Sunday.
