Adult Education

For many, adult education is their favorite part of the Bloomingdale Church experience. Many people like the fact that they can speak out, ask questions, and interact with people. They learn far more from a good class than by simply reading or listening to a lecture. They like the wide range of courses that are offered on weekdays as well as during adult education (Sundays, 9:45 -10:45 AM).

You are welcome to join the class any time.

March 4 through May 27

18.20 Somethings  studying Radical — Jeff Ryburn teaching

“In his compelling new book, Radical, David Platt delivers a powerful picture of the church in America today that, on key points, stands in sharp contrast to what the Bible shows us about the person and purpose of Jesus Christ.”  This class meets in the coffee house downstairs next to the gym.
