New Equip Adult Christian Education Classes Starting Soon
Equip, North Church’s adult Christian education classes, will enrich your understanding of Scripture and the Christian experience and faith. There are so many misunderstandings about what Scripture is. These classes will help fill the gaps in your understanding of the Bible, who God is, and how we relate to each other and non-believers as well.
Please pick up a copy of your class' book online or at a local bookstore. John Osteen's book is out of print, so handouts will be used. *Childcare is not available; however there is a class for NCrowd Kids (1st - 6th grade) on Sundays at 9 a.m.

The Drama of Scripture
Sundays at 9 a.m. beginning May 6

Craig Bartholomew
and Michael Goheen |

Many times when people teach the Bible, it is done as a fragmented series of stories and narratives, rather than a meta-narrative. There is an overarching story that is often forgotten: the creation, the fall, the redemption, and the redemption through Jesus Christ that we live out today. And so, when we understand the whole complete story of Scripture, we realize we have not yet reached the final act of the biblical narrative. We are actually existing at a time in the kingdom of God that is still awaiting the final chapter—Christ’s return and the new heaven and earth.

Ergun Caner |

In today’s pluralistic world, Christians routinely encounter other belief systems. The resulting clash of ideals and deeply held beliefs constantly tests our faith. This small-group study, written by former Muslim Ergun Mehmet Caner, is designed to develop a Christian’s theology and doctrine for the purpose of building confidence in personal evangelism and engaging their culture with absolute biblical truth.

What To Do When Nothing Seems To Work
Sundays at 9 a.m. beginning May 6
|
John Osteen |
Glenda Crenshaw |
When nothing seems to work, you need Jesus to show you your loose connections. It isn’t that the Bible doesn’t work. God’s Word works! You must realize that if there is something wrong, it is not with God nor His Word, but it is with you. You have a loose connection somewhere. This study is a spiritual check-list to help you find the loose connections in you!
