Adult Bible Classes
We believe that Scripture, the Bible, is God's inspired Word to us "written for our instruction, that through endurance and through the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope" (Romans 15:4). The words of Scripture are the very words of the Spirit of God (2 Peter 1:21), "breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work" (2 Timothy 3:16-17). Praying to His Father, Jesus said, "...your word is truth" (John 17:17) meaning that Scripture, the Bible in its entirety is inerrant and true.

Adult Information Class
If you would like to review basic Biblical teachings, learn about the teachings of the Lutheran Church, or become a member of the Lutheran Church, then this class is for you. Pastor teaches this class when there is enough interest. Talk to him or the church secretary for dates and times.
Jesus also said, "It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life" (John 6:63). Jesus being the Living Incarnate Word of God, His words have the power to impart God's Spirit and Life in our souls. How important then that we, as God's people in Christ, "hear, read, mark, learn and inwardly digest" God's Word to us in the Bible! St. Mark Lutheran offers several opportunities for adults to gather together to study and discuss God's Word.
