Rooted – Amy Heck, aheck@fpco.org
Sundays, April 11–June 6
This seminar will help you get below the surface to the Roots of what you believe. Have you ever wondered what’s at the root of your faith? Why do you believe the things that you believe about God? About the world? About people? If you grew up in the church, do you ever feel like you weren’t paying attention that day in Sunday school? If you’re new to following Jesus, do you wish you could take a crash course in what Christians believe?
We believe that a basic understanding of the bible, the history and creeds of the church are incredibly important to developing a rooted, grounded, and fuller faith. We’re going to be spending 8 weeks looking at our roots: foundations of our faith that are living, breathing, and growing; yet solid, strong, and unchanging all at the same time. Whether you’ve been walking with Jesus for 60 minutes or 60 years, join us. Get Rooted. EMC, 330-A
