This year, children will spend a week immersed among jungle plants and wildlife as they discover our true source of life — Jesus Christ.

LEARN MORE VIEW DISCUSSION GUIDE 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. DEPOLARIZED CLASS AUDIO AND NOTES 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.
