Sunday School

Sunday School is a discipleship program for the whole family, adjacent to Sunday morning worship. Grow in your Christian walk with other believers, as we sit under the Word together.

Adult classes meet from 9:45 - 10:35 am in various rooms throughout the church.

We typically offer 5 different adult classes per semester (in 2 7-week blocks) in the following areas:

Redeemer Explored — introduces Redeemer Church & the Reformed faith
Bible — studies various books of the Bible
Theology — studies different doctrinal truths
Ministry Skills — equips God’s people for ministry
Practical Living — discusses godly living in everyday life

Redeemer Explored, our Inquirers Class, discusses the vision and mission of Redeemer Church and is a required class for church membership. For those unable to attend every Sunday, some material can be found online.

Children’s classes (ages 4+) are taught by skilled volunteers in a fun, safe environment. Children's classrooms are located on the second level of the church.

Nursery (ages 0-3) is available.

Communicants' Class (usually ages 9-13), is a six-week-long class offered two times a year—fall and spring. Children of Redeemer members (i.e., Non-communing Members) have the opportunity to talk through the vows of the church, make a credible profession of faith, and be admitted to partake in the Lord’s Table as Communing Members.

Sharing our Grief

Facilitators: Quita Sauerwein, Zack Owens, Tu Combs
Location: Sanctuary

Each of us eventually face some kind of grief or know others who are grieving. Many grow up learning to avoid or suppress feelings of grief or loss.

Do you want a better grasp of God’s empathy for the grieving? Do you wish to understand how we can compassionately walk with friends and loved ones through the grieving (and healing!) process? Do you desire to be better prepared for the inevitable grief journeys in your own life?

This Sunday School class will use videos and material from GriefShare as a framework for exploring what scripture says about grief. (GriefShare is a grief recovery support program that our church uses.) Topics include managing grief-related emotions like loneliness, anxiety, sadness, anger, and regret; coping with changes in your life and relationships; recognizing what’s normal in grief; and handling feeling “stuck” or hopeless.

Culture Making

Teachers: Brian Gault, Dave Splaingard, Stewart Hood, Samuel Bolen, Peyton Smith, Chad Berry
Location: Fellowship Hall

‘Culture is what we make of the world,’ says Ken Meyers. As Christians, we are called to cultivate and create—and we do that where we live, work, worship, and play.

In this class, we’ll use Andy Crouch’s book, Culture Making, as our launching point to think about how the whole Bible helps us think about our calling as ‘creative cultivators’ in all areas of life.

What are you making of the world?

You are making something of the world. It’s inescapable. We make omelets and finger paintings, stories and meaning. We create because we are created in the image of the Creator. And what we make shapes our culture. Your family has a culture. Your workplace has a culture. Every sphere in which you exist has a culture, and the only way to change culture is by making more.

This class helps us to be intentional as we make something of the world. Join us as we make culture together!

Adult Sunday School Classes, Block 2

2025 Spring Sunday School, Block 2 will begin on Mar 30 and conclude on May 11.

Gospel Conversations

Teacher: Jerome Douglas, Marculis Mosby
Location: Fellowship Hall

Interested in having more meaningful conversations about your faith? Join us for our 'Gospel Conversations' Sunday School class! We'll explore practical tools and biblical principles to help you share the Gospel with confidence and clarity. Think of it as a chance to learn together in an encouraging environment.

We'll be using key chapters from Preston Perry's 'How to Tell the Truth' as a guide, sparking discussions and providing valuable insights. Whether you're just starting to explore how to talk about your faith or you're looking to refine your approach, this class is for you.

We'll focus on creating authentic connections and fostering genuine dialogue, so you can feel more comfortable and equipped to share the Gospel. Come join the conversation!

Jonah: You Can’t Outrun the Grace of God

Teacher: Brian Gault
Location: Sanctuary

Jonah is about a violent city, a resistant prophet, and a merciful God. In 58 verses, there’s a storm at sea, the conversion of pagan sailors, a prayer in the belly of a fish, the repentance of Israel’s archenemy, and a prophet who’s angry at God.

The story begins with Jonah running from the word of the Lord and the presence of the Lord. At the heart of the story is the mercy of God, that not only forgives the vilest of sinners, but also relentlessly pursues the heart of a prophet steeped in judgmental nationalism.

To rescue Jonah, God hurls a storm, and appoints a fish, a plant, a worm, and a scorching wind—all show Jonah (and by extension us!) the unsearchable depth of the grace of God.

Redeemer Explored

Teachers: Elbert McGowan, Jr., Barry McCay
Location: Room 109

Would you like to know more about Redeemer Church? Are you interested in becoming a member? If so, you need to take this class. Pastor Elbert McGowan, along with the elders, will teach this 7-week introductory course on the ins and outs of Redeemer Church and how you can get involved.

If you are ready to join Redeemer or have further questions, you will have the opportunity to meet with an elder at the end of the class (May 11).

Youth Sunday School (6th-12th)

2025 Spring Youth Sunday School, will begin on Jan 26 and conclude on May 11.

Location: Youth Room
High School (9th-12th): Ten Commandments
Middle School (6th-8th): Ten Commandments

After God delivered Israel from Egypt, He gave the Ten Commandments to them. But what for? And does the law have any use today? We will address questions like these and more, such as, “What is the purpose of the law? How does Jesus relate to the law? What does God’s law mean for me today?” By studying God’s law, we will see the heart of the Law-maker, how Jesus fulfills the law, and how God’s law applies to us today. If you are in 6th-12th grade, come join us as we study the Ten Commandments this Spring!

High School SS teachers: Cadden Christie, Rob Vickery, Stephanie Greer, Wilson Jamison

Middle School SS teachers: Anna Lois Callen, Lane Morgan, Josh Anderson, Stephanie Greer, Wilson Jamison

Adult Teacher Policy

Teachers in Adult Sunday School have been recommended by the Committee on Discipleship Ministries for a particular class and approved by the Session.
Teachers have either taken the vows of office (as Elder or Deacon) or have signed the Teacher-Leader Agreement (vows more involved than membership vows).
Qualified women regularly teach other women, children, and teens who are still under the instruction/household of their parents or guardians.
The formal, ongoing role of teaching God’s Word in the local church (mixed-gender) is restricted to officers.
As deemed appropriate by the Session, qualified men and women with areas of expertise in particular topics or circumstances can teach, facilitate discussion, or otherwise lead in voluntary, isolated (mixed-gender) settings.
