Winter/Spring 2026 Sunday School Classes
We encourage you to join us Sundays at 10:00 am for Sunday School. Classes are taught by our pastors and non-pastoral teachers, many with seminary degrees. The following Sunday morning classes begin or continue on January 11 and are open to all adults.
How to Manage Your Money – God’s Perspective
Rick Thurman, Main Building Bride’s Room/Room 215
MEETS THROUGH MAY 17
God cares about money. There are about 700 direct references to money in the Bible and many more indirect references. Nearly 2/3 of the parables Christ left us deal with the use of money. Through this discussion-based study, we will discover that God equates our use of wealth with our commitment to him. Ultimately, we will better understand God’s attitude toward wealth and find applications we can use on a regular basis. Topics will include Stewardship, Tithing, Debt, Wealth, and Financial Planning using God’s perspective.
Gospel of Matthew
Roger Wernette, Main Building Room 211
The class will study the book of Matthew in search of what following Jesus should look like in our lives. Starting first with the conclusion of the book, we will ask how Jesus brought his disciples to a point that he could entrust them with his Kingdom mission. Class participants will be encouraged to search for those who need to grow in their faith in Jesus and then personally help them to spiritually mature. Those interested in journaling will be given a method that will lead to a daily discipline of being in the Word.
Theology & Life | Foundations: An Overview of Systematic Theology with R.C. Sproul and other Reformed Theologians
Dan Tidwell, Main Building Room 212
Theology is central to the Christian faith, especially in the Reformed tradition, where it means a disciplined study of God and his works centered on Scripture and faithfulness to God’s sovereignty. All believers engage in theology— consciously or not—by reflecting on God or applying biblical truths. Unlike speculative philosophy, Reformed Theology focuses on systematic, faithful understanding as revealed in Scripture. This year-long study defines and examines Reformed theological cores, and aims to deepen faith, protect truth, and inspire worship, ultimately for God’s glory.
Church History as Apologetics: How Our Past Helps Us Defend the Faith Today
Erik O’Dell, Main Building Room 213
The questions Christians face today—about doctrine, authority, power, hypocrisy, and cultural relevance—are not new. The Church has been answering them for centuries.
This class explores church history not as a museum tour, but as a living resource for faithful witness in the present. We will examine key figures, movements, and debates in the Church’s past to understand how our history helps us to better know what we believe and why we believe it, providing an invaluable resource to engage today’s common doubts and objections with clarity, charity, and confidence.
Westminster Confession of Faith
Cor Van Dyk, Tommy Ikard, and Travis Graham, Main Building Room 214
We’re excited to continue our study of the Westminster Confession of Faith. We’ll explore the richness of the reformed faith, grounding ourselves in scripture and learning how these timeless truths apply to us today. Join us each week for teaching, discussion, and fellowship as we grow in Christ together.
Women's Discussion Class: The Attributes of God
Lee Shuchart, Sophia Tran, Alicia Harris, and Janet Harrison, SonRise 201
Join the women of CPC as we encourage one another through fellowship, studying God’s Word, and prayer. Together, we will explore the attributes of God—his holiness, love, faithfulness, sovereignty, and grace—and discover how a deeper understanding of who he is enriches our daily lives. As we grow in the knowledge of God’s character, we will be strengthened in faith, comforted in trials, and equipped to live with confidence and joy in Christ. “Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised, and his greatness is unsearchable.” (Psalm 145:3, ESV)
Isaiah the Prophet in the New Testament
John Crimmins, SonRise Room 202
This class will look at how Isaiah’s prophecies are used by the New Testament writers. We will begin with several well-known examples related to Jesus’ birth. Then, as we approach Holy Week and Easter and beyond, we will examine his prophecies concerning Christ’s death and resurrection, etc. Along the way we will note Isaiah’s setting in Old Testament history. It should be an interesting journey of discovery.
Young Adult Class: Covenant Theology in the 21st Century
David Newland, SonRise Room 203
J. I. Packer described Covenant Theology as “a way of reading the whole Bible that is itself part of the overall interpretation of the Bible.” In other words, Covenant Theology is the biblical way to read the Bible, providing young adults with biblical answers to important questions in their lives. Why is church membership important? What does my baptism mean? Should I have my future children baptized as infants? What promises has God made to me? Can I, and do I, trust them? Join us as we explore these questions and the meaning of God’s covenant promise, “I will be your God, and you will be my people.”
Your Father Loves You: Insights for Knowing God
Bob Roane, SonRise 204
God (Father, Son, and Spirit) loves us because he is love, not because we are perfect. If we forget that fact, our life will be more like a roller coaster ride than righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit. If we have secret fears that the Lord does not really love us (as many Christians have), we will be hindered in growing nearer to God and serving him. When we look at ourselves, our own faith, our failures, or our hard times, we can’t shake off the fears. Satan will see to that. But when we lift up our eyes and look to Jesus, crucified, risen, and returning for us, we are assured that God is eternally gracious, merciful, and kind towards us. How can the Lord be against us when all his wrath against us fell upon Christ? How can he fail to care for us when he gave the only Son he had for our sake? How can we doubt him when he has given us strong evidence of his love to chase away all our doubts? 1 John 4:10 “This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.” Please join us in studying this central theme in Scripture.
ESL Class: Paul’s Letter to the Romans
Axel Sotelo, Chapel
We will study Paul’s profound letter on the gospel of Jesus Christ. Romans clearly demonstrates our complete dependence on God’s grace, the righteousness that arises from faith alone, and the hope we have in Christ. This letter will help us understand God’s sovereign work in salvation, our new life in the Spirit, and the call to live in obedience and love.
