Emergence Sessions are evening courses that equip us to walk as disciples of Jesus. They are designed to help you grow in your knowledge and love of God and to live wisely in his world.
Winter Sessions will be held on Monday nights at 7 pm at our Totowa campus in the auditorium in suite 500. Classes will run from December 5 to January 16, with December 26 off.
The Historical and Archaeological Background to the Old Testament
Doug Becker will be leading us through a six week course on writings and material from the ancient world that relate to what we find in the Bible. This will be helpful for everyone from the believer who wants to strengthen their knowledge and confidence in God's word, to the questioning skeptic who is wondering whether we can trust what the Bible says.
