DOCTRINE FOR THE HUNGRY Go deeper into the great doctrines of the Christian faith—and learn why they matter for worship, spiritual growth, and everyday life. This accessible but substantial class will help participants examine Scripture, understand major theological positions, recognize error, and explain what they believe with biblical clarity. Doctrine for the Hungry is designed as a two-semester course. This registration is for the Fall semester only; registration for the Spring semester will open separately. Class options : 9:50 or 11:15 AM Led by : James Jolliff (9:50 AM); Anthony Ochoa and Randy Barton (11:15 AM) Cost : $5 per person, including a personal copy of the course book Preparation : Weekly reading and written reflection will be assigned. EXPLORING THE NEW TESTAMENT Trace the unfolding revelation of Jesus Christ and His Kingdom through the books of the New Testament. Rather than treating each book as a disconnected introduction, this course will explore the unity of the New Testament, the fulfillment of the Old Testament in Christ, the development of the Kingdom of God, and the life of the church under apostolic teaching. Each week will introduce the historical setting, structure, major themes, Christological emphasis, key passages, and practical implications of a New Testament book or section. The Fall semester will cover the background of the New Testament, the Gospels, Acts, and several of Paul’s major letters. The course will continue into the Spring semester. Time : 9:50 AM Led by : Dan Cheek, Anthony Ochoa, Jerome Hall, Tyler Grimes, Tim Jones, and Aaron Burger Cost : Free Preparation : Participants are encouraged to read the assigned biblical book or passage before class. MARRIAGE: What Did You Expect? Marriage reveals far more than the strengths and weaknesses of our spouse—it reveals the worship, desires, expectations, and struggles of our own hearts. Using Paul David Tripp’s What Did You Expect?, this 14-week class will help husbands and wives examine marriage biblically and grow in grace, forgiveness, communication, faithfulness, and Christlike love. This class is intended for married couples in every season of marriage, whether they are presently thriving or struggling. Time : 9:50 AM Led by : Steve Williams Cost : $10 per person, including a personal copy of the book Registration : Husband and wife should register together. Preparation : Participants will read one chapter and complete brief exercises each week. Capacity : Limited to 10 couples. WOMEN OF GRACE DISCIPLESHIP Following Jesus means knowing Him and His teaching, growing to become more like Him, and going in service to others and in making disciples. This women’s class will study the basics of the Christian faith in depth, helping participants strengthen the biblical foundation needed for a life of faithful discipleship. Participants will work through the Rose Guide Discipleship “Knowing” workbook during the week and discuss the material together in class. Whether you are learning these truths for the first time or returning to them after years of following Christ, this class is designed to refresh, clarify, and deepen your understanding of the faith. Time : 9:50 AM Led by : Kristi Grimes and Jennifer Hill Cost : $5 per person, including the workbook Preparation : Participants will complete the assigned workbook study each week.

Biblical Counseling Who is it For? Biblical counseling* is available for people of all ages and walks of life. Youth counseling will be done with another person in the room (who will be held to confidentiality standards) for accountability purposes, and counseling with women will be handled in a manner consistent with wisdom and best practice. What to Expect Biblical Counseling is counseling that is directly centered and focused on the Bible to deal with the issues of life, leaning on the promise of 2 Peter 1:3 which says, "His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness." Its focus is discipleship and heart change as developed through obedience to and understanding better God’s word. Ultimately, the goal is to help you respond to your life circumstances in a way that will please God. The underlying assumption is that God’s Word truly is sufficient for life and godliness. Biblical counseling is meant to teach you to live a godly life in response to any life circumstances you may be going through, while also often providing genuine relief from various whole-self afflictions. Everything will be held in strict confidence, except where, in the counselor’s judgment, there is a biblical and/or legal requirement to involve others (e.g. criminal activity). Biblical Counseling is a free service of GCC and can be for grief, sexual sin, addictions, marital problems, depression, etc. Our Biblical Counselors Email one of our certified biblical counselors to let him know of your interest in receiving biblical counseling. Please indicate a time preference and they will contact you to schedule.

Clusters Sunday Adult Classes New Summer Classes June 7 - July 19 The following classes will be offered for six weeks early this summer. Registration has closed for these classes. In early July, registration will begin for a new session of classes that will take place July 26-August 30. 9:50 AM Leviticus — Sacrifice and Purity (read and discuss format) A study of Leviticus chapters 1–16 and a contextual front-to-back expedition through the book of Leviticus. Bring a Bible and a willingness to participate if you can. Led by Joseph Bieber 2 Peter — How We Resist False Teaching (media discussion format) Video presentation (Kyle Idleman) on recognizing false teaching. Can we trust Scripture? Why is God taking so long to set everything right? What should Christians focus on in the meantime? Confusion about how and why God acts the way He does has always troubled the church. That’s why the apostle Peter warned the early church about patterns of false teaching that could lure people away from trusting in God. Led by James Jolliff and Jerome Hall Daniel — Thriving in Babylon (media discussion format) Video presentation (Larry Osborne) on living faithfully in a spiritually hostile culture. These are confusing times for many Christians. Traditional biblical values are not only rejected; it’s all happened at warp speed, leaving many of us spiritually and culturally disoriented or even fearful, frustrated, and angry. How can we spiritually survive in an increasingly spiritually hostile environment? Led by Chris Hackworth 11:15 AM Teaching to Change Lives (workshop format) A workshop for sharpening the skills of teachers, leaders, or facilitators. Learn how to engage the Word of God through observation, interpretation, and application, and how to present the Word of God through the "Hook, Book, Look, Took" approach. You will enjoy the explanation, exploration, and practice of principles that will be helpful in working with any age group and in any presentation format. A $5 fee will be collected for the class book as part of the online registration process. Led by Dan Cheek and Dair Hileman Feel free to contact the church office if you have questions.

Our Global Workers Solomon and Ruby Kendagor International Broadcasting and Discipling Mission Focus Our Mission focus is in three areas: A. Evangelism. B. Leadership (Both Church and Government). C. Marriage and Family. We accomplish these areas of ministry through: A. Two Radio and TV stations; B. Social Media like Facebook. We are in over 50 countries. Our listeners increased by 502% to 63,781 in the last month according to Facebook. Testimony Solomon's Testimony Solomon came to know Christ at the age of 9 through his parents’ ministry and family devotions. Parents were Kenyan Missionaries who left everything to serve God and live by faith, trusting the Lord for every need. Parents emphasized the importance of personal time with God for everyone in the family. During family devotion everybody was expected to share what he or she learned during personal devotion. Children learned from early age to have personal devotion, pray and trust God for every need. Solomon, however, planned to make money and give as others served the Lord and live by faith. During high school he struggled about God’s will for his life. God made it clear that he was interested in Solomon’s heart not his money. He finally surrendered to God’s purpose and God began to work in his heart. Solomon ended up in full time ministry and continues to serve with joy. Ruby's Testimony Abandoned by parents at about a month old, Ruby was raised in an orphanage with close to 500 children. Life was difficult at the orphanage and Ruby longed to know about her parents. When she was 14, a letter from her dad in Canada arrived saying her mother was dead. Ironically, another letter arrived the following day from her mom in Barbados introducing herself to her. Neither of the parents wrote to her again. At age 16 she had to leave the orphanage to work as a maid, first for a Chinese family for a year and a half and later for a Muslim family. The Evangelical Alliance Mission arrived and rented property from the Muslim family. Through their ministry, Ruby came to faith in Christ. She finally met her father at the age of 19 and her mother at the age of 23. Both became believers through her testimony. Back to Global Workers

Our Global Workers Reaching Ayutthaya SIM (Serving in Missions) - Ayutthaya Team Mission Focus SIM Thailand’s vision is “By faith we see the unreached of Thailand authentically responding to the Gospel and being discipled into biblically-based, community transforming churches that engage in mission.” With this vision, SIM Thailand started a team in Ayutthaya, Thailand. SIM Ayutthaya is a multi-cultural and multi-skilled team. Members come from different countries and cultures but are united by their response to the Great Commission. The team is currently focused in four main core ministries: Hope for Life (Ministry to the Underprivileged), Santisuk Church (Church Planting Ministry), AUR Community (University Students Ministry) and Joyful Heart Bilingual House (Language Teaching Ministry). Reaching Ayutthaya Ayutthaya is a city in Thailand that is 0.5% Christian. The SIM mission in Ayutthaya seeks to reach out to its neighbors in a variety of ways: Hope for Life: This program includes English and life skill classes for children in the schools and on the temple grounds, as well as home visits to families. Joyful Heart Bilingual House: These tuition-based language classes teach English and Mandarin in a structured setting. This enables the mission to reach a segment of the population who are more educated and/or financially able. In order to serve the Thai people well, the staff are dedicated to improving their Thai language skills. This allows them to be effective communicators with those that they are trying to reach. Additionally, understanding the Thai culture is vitally important to interacting well to build credibility and trust with those they seek to serve. Church planting: Santisuk Church - A pastor and his wife work diligently to shepherd their small flock and draw others in. Serving in local churches: The staff and global workers of the Ayutthaya team split up to attend four different local churches. Their goal is to become giving and serving members of these churches. By dividing up among different churches, they are able to build relationships between churches and to strengthen the church overall in Ayutthaya. AUR Community (University Students Ministry): ministry to University Students. Back to Global Workers
