For ADults

You are totally unique. So is your journey. 

In a very real sense, there are as many paths to God as there are people. This means your experiences matter: they mean something, they are important, they’ve shaped you. Our families, relationships, travels, career, education, and so forth, these aspects form and shape us – our ways of thinking, loving, and relating to ourselves, others, and, ultimately, God. 

But, none of this necessarily means you’ve been walking the path alone. ​

​Great thinkers have often remarked that the whole panorama of religious expression across the world and throughout time, are an expression of the human being’s desire and pursuit of the divine. Human beings long for some sort of relationship with God. 

But, Christianity is different.

It is not about our pursuit of God, but God’s pursuit of us. Christianity is the expression of an unfathomable reality – that the God of the universe would take flesh in the Person of Jesus Christ in order for God’s love to become intelligible in a human way. In this sense, God’s path is “big” enough that it becomes a personal way for each of us; God’s path intersects with each of ours and leads us home. Christianity is the marvelous discovery and embrace of the God who first discovers and embraces us. ​
​​Our adult offerings respect your journey – they seek to meet you on the path – and introduce you to an ever-deepening encounter with Jesus Christ, he who is God-with-us, “the way, the truth, and the life” (Jn. 14:6). ​

Where are you on the path?
