Blessed Assurance – Instructor: Rev. Dr. Audry Turner
Class Description: God is Good all the Time, and all the Time, God is Good. This course is designed to look back over your life, see how God has kept you, comforted you and B.L.E.S.S.E.D. you. Each day of these course, we will examine a verse of this spiritual, by looking into the applied scripture that encourages you to stay on the journey until we have finished the race. Of course, we will shout to the heavens, singing Blessed Assurance, Jesus is Mine.
BLESSED means Be (a) Living Example Serving Savior Every Day.
No More Excuses – Instructor: Rev. Dr. Lee C. Winfrey, Sr.
Class Description: This course is specifically for men who have a desire to find their God-given purpose in the body of Christ. Sometimes circumstances in life make it difficult for men to be all God wants them to be. The author, Tony Evans urges men to stop looking at their circumstances as excuses and instead to see them as challenges and opportunities for success. Exploring examples of men of God throughout the Bible, this study will challenge you to lay down your excuses, stop compromising, and fight to be a man of character and commitment. Despite any setbacks, failures, and pressures, you can still find purpose, meaning, and direction in life and become the man God has called you to be.

I’m A Piece of Work – Instructor: Rev. Dr. Robyn Moore
Class Description: This course places emphasis on women to be authentically shaped by God without shame or embarrassment. The author, Dr. Cynthia H. Hale, celebrates the reader, encourages women to embrace their uniqueness and pursue that “dream” of divine destiny. Being shaped by God, women are taken on a journey to move from brokenness to wholeness. Likewise, this course is designed to help women affirm themselves and to claim God s best. The desired outcome of this course is that some women will begin healing and forgiveness, not just with someone but with themselves.

The Cutting Edge – Instructor: Rev. Eddie Cooper, Jr.
Class Description: This course is designed to move your local church from status quo ministry into an innovative and creative movement engaging multigenerational members. What does your demographics look like? Seniors vs. Young Adults? Women vs. Men? How do you create a balance by engaging everyone, and that all are growing spiritually, physically, socially and emotionally? In this learning space, we also read a simplified case study and brainstorm forward thinking strategies that addresses a very relevant issue in today’s church environment.
The Church Without Walls – Instructor: Rev. Byron Brooks
Class Description: The church is no longer confined or limited to the physical building or even the immediate surrounding community. Every day, global ministry using technology, media and other methodologies bring people to Christ. This hands-on course will take place in the computer lab of the church creating practical experience using social media, email, and other online resources like QR Codes, links, that offer the ability to reach a larger audience, reaching the masses by fulfilling ‘The Great Commission’.
What the Bible Says: A Primer in Orthodoxy – Instructor: Rev. Dr. Nathan Johnson
Class Description: Can I lose my salvation? When will Jesus return? What is the Lord’s Day, the first day of the week? These are great questions. Join us as we allow the Bible to speak for itself as we seek answers to these and other doctrinal questions. Doctrine matters!
