The Reluctant Evangelist | Ross Jenkins and Jon Webber, Sr. | Room 2107
|
| Does the idea of evangelism make you uneasy? You’re not alone. Many believers feel hesitant, unprepared, or even afraid to talk about their faith. In this honest and encouraging class, we’ll explore why we hold back—and how God can use even the most reluctant hearts to share His love. Through Scripture, real-life stories, and open conversation, we’ll discover:
- What keeps us from speaking up—and how to overcome it
- How your personal story can become a powerful testimony
- When (and how) to share God’s love with authenticity and grace
Whether you're shy, skeptical, or simply unsure where to begin, this class will help you grow in confidence and compassion as a messenger of hope. Join us as we learn to evangelize not out of pressure—but out of love. |

| The Book of 1 Peter | Pastor Steve Aeschbacher | Room 3205
| Life doesn't always look—or feel—like the Kingdom of God. In a world filled with conflict, confusion, and compromise, how do we stay faithful? How do we stand out without losing heart? The Apostle Peter wrote to early Christians facing these very challenges, and his words still speak powerfully to us today. In this engaging class we’ll dive into the book of 1 Peter—a letter full of hope, challenge, and practical wisdom for believers trying to live out their faith in a culture that often pushes back. Until the day God restores all things, we are called to represent His Kingdom here and now. Come be equipped, encouraged, and challenged to live boldly for Christ—right where you are. |

Join us for a thought-provoking series of video-based sessions that dive into the heart of life’s biggest questions—faith, suffering, leadership, culture, and more. Each week features a compelling video presentation from leading Christian thinkers, followed by guided group discussion. These sessions aren’t lectures—they’re conversations, hosted by facilitators passionate about helping others wrestle with truth, beauty, and the Christian vision of a flourishing life. June 1: Nailing It: How We Become True Leaders (Steve Ecker) As Christians, we have a unique calling: not just to lead, but to serve. What does this look like in today’s culture, and how can we serve as leaders and foster an environment of abundant grace and joy wherever we are? June 8: Suffering, Wayfaring & Hope – A Conversation on Mental Health & the Christian Faith (Laura Shultz) Anxiety, depression, and other mental health challenges are surging among both young and old. There are few untouched – either directly or through loved ones – with the suffering that attends such struggles. What does faith offer those in the midst of such challenges? June 15: Jazz, Hope, and the Gospel (Rafael Nieves-Rosario) What does jazz have to do with the gospel? More than you might think. In this fascinating session, we explore how jazz—with its soulful improvisation, deep history, and complex beauty—echoes the human condition and reveals truths found only in Christ. Come hear the music and message that can move both heart and soul. June 22: The Courageous Middle (Cathy Russell) Amid cultural and political polarization in our churches and communities, many say there’s no use engaging with – or even listening to – people across the divides. All we can do, we’re told, is pick a side, ignore its flaws, and follow the crowd. For believers, is that all there is? June 29: Living Well and Dying Well: Practical Wisdom from the Christian Tradition (Elizabeth Harris) When the people we love face the reality that their time on earth is growing short, what do we have to offer them? We find that our modern culture turns away from realities of life and death; it cannot give us the help, comfort and practical wisdom needed for these moments. Where can we turn?
