- Idolatry
Bob Beasley
The Bible is all about conflict. In the final analysis, the Bible is about a cosmic conflict between the true God and false gods--represented by idols. Although we don't think of ourselves as idolaters in this modern age, the truth is that our idols are just more sophisticated. Instead of the Old Testament gods like Dagon and Baal and Ashtoreth, humans nowadays are prone to worship Greed, Power, Sex, Comfort, Security and the like. Our idols are both far away and nearby. They focus and excite our sin. The class seeks to answer questions like: How can the idols in my life be recognized and dealt with? We don't bow down to graven images! How do we break the first and second commandments today? We'll look at biblical idolatry through the ages, and attempt to see our own frustrations and conflicts in a new light.

- Adults Coming Together to Share
Tim Carlson
The purpose of this class is establish, promote, and develop the congregation wherein people can get to know and relate to one another for the purposes of fellowship, assimilation, ministry, and growth. Also, ACTS will provide a non-threatening and accepting environment for visitors and those new to the life of Trinity. Further, ACTS will provide opportunity for study in God’s Word, following up the sermon of the day with discussion of practical applications to our lives.
- Sola Fide: Jesus in 2 Samuel
Steve Eargle, Bill Ressler
The overall goal of this course is to help us understand what God is teaching us in each book of the Old Testament, especially as we clearly see the centrality of Jesus in the persons, events and symbols throughout Redemptive History. You will be instructed and greatly encouraged in your grasp of the Scriptures through this class.
