Our Vision
for Education

Disciples of Jesus at UALC grow in their Biblical literacy and engagement, learning how to read, apply, and trust the words of Scripture. We learn together the hope of the Gospel, the role of God’s law, the meaning of the cross, and the role of the Church.

Sunday Afternoon Education Hour and Adult Classes

Life and the Bible have this in common: they can both seem awfully complicated. Part of growing in Christ together is learning to understand the Bible and how to think through life’s questions with Jesus at the center. 

​

Many classes are on Sundays, 4:30-6:00 pm at the Mill Run Campus but check our schedule of all upcoming classes below. 

Previous Class Recordings & Notes:

Depolarized Class (4-sessions)

Our society is stuck in a toxic cul-de-sac of political polarization and can’t seem to find its way out. But the Gospel of Jesus can get us unstuck and reform us for healthier engagement for the good of our neighbors – and the good of our Christian witness. In these resources, we explore how the Gospel can move us from political arrogance to humility, from partisanship to partnership, and from fear to hope.

OVERVIEW

There’s a good chance you’ve heard the word Gospel before. And maybe you’ve noticed that people can mean pretty different things by it, even though they call them all “Gospel.” Some of those things are a lot more helpful than others.

 

If you’re curious about the Gospel of Jesus, if you wonder why Christians sometimes seem to be preaching different messages, if the Gospel has ever sounded like not very good news to you, or if you just want to grow in understanding Jesus’ message better, then we made this series for you.

​

For the last year, Pastor Steve and the UALC education team have been working on a video series for small groups. This seven-episode video series is part of a new study series we will be rolling out over the next several years to help develop the Biblical and theological foundation of our church.
