2nd Hour Classes
What are 2nd hour classes?
2nd Hour is Rush Creek’s version of Sunday School! It is an opportunity to come together with our brothers and sisters in Christ to study God’s Word and grow in our understanding of what it says and how we can apply it to our lives. 2nd Hour gives us a chance to ask tough questions, wrestle with difficult passages, and engage one another in dialogue and discussion in a way that would never be possible during our Morning Worship Service and Sermon.
Is there a specific 2nd Hour class for my age group or can I simply choose one to go to?
While we always encourage newcomers to check out our Rush Creek Connect class first, we want you to find a class that interests you, and if it isn’t the right fit feel free to try a different one! Our hope is that you will ultimately find a class that challenges you in your faith, encourages you to search the Scriptures, and helps you feel more connected to the community of Rush Creek and to our great God!
Where do the 2nd Hour Classes meet and what is each class about?
Gathering Grounds – Creekside Room
Pastor Phil Long teaches this class which focuses on relevant topics and issues from a biblical perspective. Gourmet coffee and treat as well as fellowship and new friends are an important part of this class.
Adult Bible Fellowship – Courtyard Room
This is a unique combination of a Second Hour class and a Life Group rolled into one. Join us right after the morning service for a time of fellowship and refreshments, then find a seat at one of our tables for a time of Bible Study, encouragement, and prayer. This class is taught by Paul Sweet.
Friendship & Fellowship – Parkside Room
Each week includes a time of intercessory prayer for the needs of our families and church. We then enjoy Bible Study led by Tim Conklin. Everyone is welcome, so come and join us!
Faithful Families – The Cove – Harbor Rooms
This class was formed by families who are dedicated to the small group concept and seeks to draw people together toward a common core of interests. It is a fun and caring group of married couples in their 20’s, 30’s, and early 40’s with children ranging in age from preschool to early Jr. High. We are committed to the enhancement of the family through prayer, Scripture, and family/child-rearing related studies.
