Learning and Growing Together
Our goal at HCC is to make Adult Sunday School the place that everyone wants to be for an hour each Sunday morning. Every quarter we will offer a variety of courses designed to appeal to both new or longtime participants. We invite you to visit a class or two each session, then make a commitment to attend for the remaining weeks. It is our hope that we will all increase in knowledge, mature in faith and grow in fellowship.

Adult Sunday School Classes
Fall 2019, Session 1
Of Kings and Prophets: Solomon, Elijah and Elisha
Sept. 8 – Oct. 13 10:45 AM Room 211
David, the Lord’s chosen king for the Israelites, has died. He is succeeded by his son, who would build the temple and usher in Israel’s Golden Age. But would the wisest and richest man in the world follow in his father’s footsteps? Join us for six weeks as we dive into biblical stories of glory, loss and intrigue, witnessing the spectacular rise and fall of a nation. Together we’ll explore profound lessons from the lives of Solomon, Elijah and Elisha, in 1st and 2nd Kings, and witness the beginnings of a new era of divine judgement and prophecy.
Family in Worship
Sept. 8 – Oct. 13 10:45 AM Room 221
In a society that is increasingly generationally fragmented and segregated, how counter-intuitive and counter-cultural to make a stand by uniting the whole family in corporate worship every week! What difference does it make to congregate as an inter-generational body as we look beyond our age to our timeless God and His promises? What are the benefits and challenges of raising a worshipful family that is taught the rhythms and patterns of regular worship? We invite you—whether you are a parent, grandparent, or even just a church family member—to join us for six weeks as we explore these themes and discuss how to lead our families as they are growingly transformed and realigned by biblical worship.
Fall 2019, Session 2
Rebellious People and the God Who Loves Them: The Divided Kingdom and God’s Prophetic Word
Oct. 20 – Nov. 24 10:45 AM Room 211
God’s faithful, unfailing and unrelenting Love is on full display as He raises prophet after prophet to correct and console a rebellious and stubborn people. Join us as we spend six weeks looking at some of the most memorable and powerful stories and passages in all the Prophetic writings, such as Jonah’s reluctant message to an ungodly kingdom (featuring a very large fish!), Hosea’s obedience to a very strange command and Isaiah’s faithfulness in proclaiming God’s promises.
A Place at the Table: Grace and Hospitality
Oct. 20 – Nov. 24 10:45 AM Room 221
“Hospitality sharpens the saw of God’s word on our hard hearts. It develops bold intimacy among people who would never have reason to be friends. It grieves the loss of missed opportunities to serve. It shudders at Jesus’s words, ‘For I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink, I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me. . . . as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to me.’ Jesus identifies with the stranger, the outsider, the needy. Daily hospitality hones a distinctive Christian culture from within as it embraces evangelistic optimism, knowing that if God wills, strangers will become neighbors and neighbors will become part of the family of God.
