Sunday School | 10 a.m.
Sunday School is a continuation of our common life in worship — a time to know and to be known, to learn and to pray, and to attend ever more closely to what God is doing among us at Blacknall and in the world. No registration is needed and classes are open to all, including visitors. Look for a deacon wearing a bright red vest if you need help locating a class.
Summer 2025 Sunday School Class Schedule
Classes begin June 1
Adult Classes
30s, 40s, & Friends: Seeing God in Our (Extra)Ordinary Lives
Location: Fellowship Hall
Stories of saints throughout Church history reveal God’s love, faithfulness, power, and grace. While these historical figures are vitally important, we don’t have to look to the distant past to find inspiring and encouraging examples of God at work. This summer, the 30s, 40s, and Friends Sunday School class continues to explore the “saints” among us. Each week, we interview a member of the Blacknall community, discovering how God is and has been present in their daily life—families, friendships, work, and through joys and challenges. Join us to learn about God’s enduring love and faithfulness.
Leaders: Warren Kinghorn and Trig Steinbrenner
Young Adult Fellowship
Location: Parlor
This summer, the Young Adult Fellowship will be leaning into honest conversations around current topics and social issues to learn better how to be in community with one another and care for one another despite differences. We will be engaging with these topics in light of the Gospel.
Leaders: Suzanne McLendon Pape, Gurney Buchanan, Olivia Fain, Andrew McGannon, and Ruthie Owens
Growing in Grace
Location: Room 404 & Zoom
We will continue our study of the Pauline Epistles, focusing on Paul’s letters to the Corinthians. The class will include discussion, skits, and extensive handouts for reference. This class includes a Zoom option for those unable to attend in person.
Leaders: Paul Immanuel, Lowrie Beacham, and Sean Condon
Word Alive
Location: Community Room (Room 201)
The gospels record that the followers of Jesus often “said to one another....” They listened to Jesus, but many times they hammered out what He meant among themselves. Our Sunday School class does the same. All class members read the week’s assigned chapter of the Bible and show up ready to discuss 1) the main theme of the chapter, 2) what God was like in that chapter, and 3) how we can apply that same idea in our culture. This summer, we will continue our study of 1 and 2 Samuel.
Leaders: Michael Whisenhunt and John Hamilton
