Isle of Hope UMC Adult Sunday School Classes
| Bearean Bible Class |
| Appropriately called a Bible Class because of its devoted study to the Holy Scriptures. The name is derived from Luke’s account of the people of Berea in Acts 17:11, which states "... they received the message with great eagerness and examined scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true." Taught with leadership that invites questions and contention. Examining the scriptures is inspiring and dynamic. It distinguishes God’s relationship with the people of Israel and His Apostle Paul. Class ages range from young adult to young at heart. |
| New Hope Class |
| This class is blessed with members of all ages, primarily from the mid–30’s to early 50’s. Anyone is welcome to join us – young couples and parents, couples with older children and single parents. Lessons include Bible study and the application of God’s Word to our lives. |
| Cornerstone Class |
| A family–oriented class of 20+ couples in ages ranging from 20 to 40+ years. Format for the class varies; we have a different leader for each topic, with topics ranging from traditional Bible studies to contemporary applications of Biblical principles to personal testimonies. Many of the class members serve as Sunday School teachers for children; therefore, many in the class attend without a spouse so if you are spouse–less, you won’t be the only one! |
