ADULT FAITH FORMATION
Sunday Morning In-Depth Bible Study
The In-depth Bible Study Group is more like a self-led literature class than a weekly devotional. We call it "in-depth" Bible study because we look at the layers of tradition and meaning that underlie scripture. We set aside our personal religious beliefs to embrace different landscapes of intention, obligation, and expectation. We do not disqualify any of the theological frameworks in today's world. Still, neither do we assume a single, correct approach to Biblical passages or to religion itself.
Wednesday Morning
Bible Study
This group meets every Wednesday at 11 a.m.
Plymouth Academy
Plymouth Academy is offered each fall and spring for six consecutive Wednesday nights. See below for classes offered Spring 2023.
Understanding the Cross
Understanding the Cross: Perspectives on Jesus, the Crucifixion, and Theologies of Atonement
Rev. Dr. Valerie Miller-Coleman
Have you ever wondered why the cross holds such an important place in the Christian tradition? Are there questions you have now that need better answers? Our hymnal and our pews are packed with a wide range of perspectives on the crucifixion of Jesus. Come ask your questions and study the range of ways Christians understand the cross. We may find the answers you’re looking for together.
Time: 6-7pm
Dates: Wednesdays 3/1, 3/8, 3/22, 3/29, 4/5
The 1619 Project
The 1619 Project is an ongoing initiative from The New York Times Magazine that began in August 2019, the 400th anniversary of the beginning of American slavery. It aims to reframe the country’s history by placing the consequences of slavery and the contributions of black Americans at the very center of our national narrative.
Join a discussion group with a team of experienced facilitators to tackle the material in the 1619 project prayerfully together.
Time: 6-7pm
Dates: Wednesdays 3/1, 3/8, 3/22, 3/29, 4/5
Covenant Groups
Covenant Groups provide an opportunity to gather in intentional small groups to grow in faith and connect on a deeper spiritual level. These groups of 8-10 people meet twice a month, currently via Zoom, to discuss faith-based materials and come to a deeper understanding of what it means to be a Christian in today’s world. These groups are currently closed, but we will be starting up new groups in a few months if you are interested in participating!
