“We are saved by grace, not by good works.” That is true, but is that all? This class will explore the New Testament’s overwhelmingly positive presentation of good works, and consider such questions as: Why are good works mentioned only in the New Testament and not in the Old? What are good works, exactly? Can unbelievers do them? Did the thief on the cross do any? And how can you know what good works God has called YOU to do? Join us as we bring these questions and others to the Scriptures, with the goal of growing in obedience to Jesus’s command to “let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven” (Matt 5:16).

John Calvin famously said that the human heart is an idol factory. This Spring, using Tim Keller's Counterfeit Gods as a guide, we will unpack the common idols of our culture and what to do about them. 

The last 12 books of the Old Testament from Hosea to Malachi are often overlooked but actually full of rich and encouraging truth about God and us. You will leave the class better equipped to read these mysterious books and a deeper knowledge of our gracious God.
