+ + Generations of Grace
Room 015-C (Lower Level)
Ages: Intergenerational Families
Leader: Bryant Morris
Current Topic: Through the BibleThis Sunday School class is going through the Bible in three years. Family devotionals that align with the lessons taught are provided. This class focuses on family discipleship by:
- Teaching the Bible in a way that engages both parents and children;
- Equipping parents to be the primary spiritual leaders in their homes; and
- Encouraging families to live out their faith daily through prayer, worship, and service.
We welcome others who desire to support and walk alongside families in this journey of faith. We believe the high-energy nature of a room full of kids and parents is worth the necessary flexibility and distracted moments.
