ADULTS

Many of us first heard the great stories of Scripture as children: Noah’s Ark, Sodom and Gomorrah, the parting of the Red Sea, Daniel in the lions’ den, and Jonah and the Big Fish. They were colorful, memorable, and often told in simple, storybook ways. But what really happened? Are these stories historical? Symbolic? Both? And what deeper truths have we missed by only hearing the “kids’ version?”

In this study, Once Upon a Time: Busting the Fairy Tale Myths in the Bible, we will take a fresh look at some of the most familiar passages in the Bible and ask honest questions: Did these events truly happen? What evidence do we have?  What was the original message for God’s people, and what does it mean for us today?

Finding Meaning and Purpose in Life Practices, based upon the book A Geography of Faith: An Altar in the World by Barbara Brown Taylor

The class will focus on how we as individuals, particularly through a spiritual lens, find meaning and purpose in our lives. The meaning to be made, as Taylor notes, is defined differently in different seasons and circumstances of our lives and can be expressed in our life practices. Participants can best engage by reading the book to be explored, but no worries - readings particular to each week will be provided, as well as guiding questions and thoughts to ponder.

Led by Rev. Beth Miller

ADULTS

Are you ready to take the next step in your spiritual journey as we move into the New Year? Do you long to grow beyond a “convenient Christianity” and become a deeply formed, fully devoted follower of Jesus? If so, Galloway Growth Groups (G3) invite you to join us as Discipleship Essentials continues into the New Year.

Following the model of Jesus, G3 meets in intentional groups of three to four people, creating space for authentic relationships, encouragement, and spiritual growth. These small, focused gatherings provide an environment where faith can be strengthened and lives can be transformed.

Led by Rev. Dr. Raigan Miskelly

Ever wondered what Christians really believe about war, heaven, or suffering? This class tackles the big questions of faith head-on. Each week we’ll explore a different theological theme, dig into Scripture, and wrestle with what it means for life today. Bring your curiosity—and your questions!

Led by Rev. Dr. Lt. Ricky James, Dean of Chapel at Millsaps College
