Adult Education
We encourage our adult members at St. John's to actively participate in a weekly small group. Why? To provide another opportunity for community. |

WHAT IS THE ONE THING THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO CHANGE ABOUT YOURSELF? Pastor Pete Imlah . . . 6:00a – 7:00a (Fellowship Hall). You can change your appearance, your habits, your friends, your job…but you can't change your character. Not on your own. You were in God's imagination before you were ever born. All the talent, gifting, and creativity you possess was placed in you by God Himself. Can you imagine the things you could do, the impact you could have on the world, if you tapped into the dreams God has for your life? Men, of all ages, join us for our study entitled “Uprising” by Erwin McManus. In this new study we will be challenged to allow God to transform our character to be more like His. The desperate heart cry of every human being is – “I want to live” – let’s wrestle together to find an answer to our cry. (Thursdays all year) THURSDAY MORNING SENIOR BIBLE STUDY, John Behrendt . . .
