Sunday Morning Learning

At First Lutheran we believe you're never to old to be learning new things and growing spiritually. This year we're offering a number of options for adults each and every Sunday from 10:15-11 a.m. to learn and grow in faith. Please drop in for any session when you are here.

​During the church season of Lent, we will be focusing on the Bible. Each week one of our pastors will examine a facet of scripture in-depth to help us gain a better understanding of scripture. These sessions, along with the biblical reading practices from worship, will help to deepen our engagement with The Word as we move into The Community Bible Experience following Easter.

"The Historical King David" – Mike Bryant
“Their name has become synonymous with barbarism, but in reality the Philistines were technologically superior to the Israelites and even the Egyptians; while most of the world still forged weapons and armor out of bronze, they had mastered the art of working with iron. These new invaders posed an existential threat that would force the twelve tribes to join forces or perish.  In this 3-week class we look at David’s era through the historian’s lens.”
