Adult Ministry

Bible Institute

Bible Institute, our educational evening, is designed for people of all ages who want to learn the truths about God, His message, and how it affects every aspect of life and relationships. We offer men’s and women’s Bible studies. Courses are held on Sunday evenings, from 6:00 – 7:30 pm. Age-appropriate discipleship programming for the entire family takes place on Sunday nights with Ablaze for students and The Vine for children.

Current Study

Study of Colossians & Philemon

Colossians and Philemon guide students to explore the person and work of Jesus Christ as well as and the implications of following Him. This inductive study will guide you to dig into Scripture for yourself and grow in understanding of your own identity in response to Christ. Make plans to join us and bring a friend with you!

Join us starting January 5th at 6:00pm for this 10-week study!

*Workbooks are $10 and may be purchased at the bookstore on Sunday mornings.

Sunday school

Meaningful Membership

All of our Sunday School classes teach a unified curriculum, so every member of the family is learning about the same passage of the Bible, in an age-appropriate way. They meet from 9-10 am before our worship service.

“Summer Book Club – 2024” is over.

We hope to see you next year!

Welcome to our first Summer Book Club!

We invite you to come join us as we read some great books and fellowship together. Different than a traditional book club, we will only meet ONCE. You will have 4 books to choose from led by 4 different women on 4 different dates. Then you get a full month and a half to choose, purchase, and read the ONE book of your choice. At the date you selected, you will get together with other women who have chosen the same book and spend some time fellowshipping and discussing your book. This is a great opportunity to be intentional with your personal growth in Christ, as well as growing through relationships with your fellow sisters at Parkside. We’re looking forward to a great time together!

FAQs

Who can attend?

Any married couple may attend. A couple does not have to be a member of our church to participate.

What will it cost?

What does a normal date night cost if you go out to eat and see a movie, or if you go to a ballgame or concert? $75? $100? More? The cost for four sessions (a full year), including all materials, snacks, etc. is just $220 per couple for the year. That is less than $1 a day for a year. We encourage you to consider your participation fee as an investment in your marriage. What a great Christmas, birthday, or anniversary gift.

If financial assistance is needed, we would love to help. Contact Pastor Kasey to inquire about scholarship availability.

When are sessions held?

2024-25 dates can be found above. Sessions will be held in The Fellowship Center from 3pm – 9pm. Your meal and snacks are included. Participation requires making a commitment to attend all four sessions. If interested in observing a session of Grace Marriage, please contact Pastor Kasey

Shift the Drift

Find out more about Grace Marriage.

Who will we be with?

You will be in a group with your spouse as well as other couples who want their marriage to grow. A dozen other couples, plus a trained facilitator couple, will walk through the day’s material together. Spouses will have personal time together throughout the day to privately discuss the topics addressed. Groups will have mixed ages. Newly marrieds as well as couples who have been married for decades will be involved. Grace Marriage is more about spending time with your spouse, not about being with close friends. Although you will get to know others in your group better, the purpose is to spend time with your husband/wife and focus on your marriage.

What about childcare?

Grace Marriage sessions last around 6 hours. That is a long time for children to be at the church building, even if they have activities. We believe that most children would be happier in their own home or with family/friends they know. We also want to give couples freedom to focus on each other without feeling the need to check on the kids if they are just down the hallway. For these reasons childcare will not be offered. Consider the coaching days as an extended date – time for just the two of you.

How do we sign up?

Click on the “Register here” button in the middle of this page. If interested in observing a session of Grace Marriage, please contact Pastor Kasey

How do we pay?

You may pay online when you register. A non-refundable fee of $220 is due upon signing up (for 4 sessions).

Is there a deadline?

Yes. Participants must be registered by 11:59 p.m. on Monday, August 5 for 2024-2025 Grace Marriage. We are expecting our groups to be full.
