BASIC is a seven-part short film series inviting you to reclaim the simple, full, and beautiful journey that your lives are intended to be. This opportunity is a 7-week commitment providing you the opportunity to watch videos and participate in engaging conversation that takes you from an intellectual knowing to a deeper application which can change your life. There is no homework, and everything is done in the classroom together with other participants.

This event will begin February 2nd during 2nd service (11am-12:30pm) in the classrooms upstairs by the Fellowship Hall. There is no registration, and all are welcome to join. Simply show up. If you are not sure where to go, ask an usher who will be happy to direct you.

The content in the first 3 sessions will lead you to think about who God is. We all have ideas about God, but those ideas are often formed more by our own experiences with the Christian life then by the way God describes Himself.

The content in the last 4 sessions will lead you to think about what we do as a church and why we do those basic things. We all have ideas about what church should be and do, but those ideas are often formed more by our own experiences with the church than by what God says in the Bible about the church.

Our prayer is that you will see the Trinity and these four basic practices in a new light and that your life is changed as a result.

Many of us conform to the patterns of the world around us. Even with the best intentions, we often mimic what we believe to be good rather than pursuing a living knowledge and connected understanding that teaches us how to live our day-to-day lives. This course will help you discover your true God-given identity, which is key in operating with the same power that Jesus had. Each week, we introduce crucial steps that open doors to help discover or rediscover pieces of your foundational knowledge that you may have missed. This study helps you see beneath Jesus’ decisions as well as the direction that led him to powerfully connect with and transform so many people. This is how he changed the world, and how you can too!

Most of us have prayed the Lord’s Prayer–and completed it in less than 25 seconds. Jesus’ commanded us to “pray this way.” Yet it feels like a duty rather than a dynamic engagement.

The Lord’s Prayer was intended to be memorized–but it was meant for far, far more. Each word of the Prayer is linked to all of Jesus’ teaching. It is actually a framework to teach us to “pray God’s thoughts after Him.” This course will span 8 weeks, and require Dr. Chotka’s book, “Living Out the Lord’s Prayer: Line by Line.”  Each attendee will use the resource daily in their prayer life, and take part in a small group to share what they have learned.

This prayer is the key to all of Jesus’ teaching.

Learning to trust again in relationships? Difficult relationships can damage our ability to trust, causing us to shut down from close relationships. But God designed us to experience freedom and love. To live this way, we eventually need to take a risk.

What if you never expected miraculous healing was possible but were surprised when it actually happened, or by the way in which it happened? And what if you found out that, all along, the Bible had principles for healing prayer that we could apply to our lives for restoring body, mind, and spirit?

Join Pastor David Chotka in his unexpected journey of discovery that healing prayer is God’s idea, not a human concept, and that He invites us to intercede for healing in our own lives and on behalf of others. Prayer, including healing prayer, is one of the greatest activities in which Christians can participate with God to fulfill His purposes. God wants us to pray as an integral part of our relationship with Him and as a vital aspect of our life of faith.

This intriguing course covers such topics as:

• Eight ways healing prayer is misunderstood
• Healing prayer: what does the Bible say?
• Medicine, miracle, and mystery: how they interrelate
• Why and how we pray for healing
• The role of compassion in healing
• Christ’s forgiving and healing presence within us
• How to prepare yourself for prayer
• Healing Prayer includes accounts of God’s power to heal today, and it provides guidance for how to organize a prayer team in your small group, church, or denomination.

Above all, this course shows that it is God who initiates healing prayer. Our part is to respond to His instructions and leading as we pray. All He asks is our openness to Him. take this course and you, too, may be surprised by the power of Healing Prayer.

Every Christian quickly discovers that they need to learn to enter into the worldview of our Lord and the first disciples. That world view was/is/will be supernatural. Jesus first experience in ministry was to be baptized. His second was to watch the heavens split open, as the Holy Spirit empowered Him for ministry. Jesus third experience in ministry was to spend 40 days and nights staring down the Prince of the Power of the Air, the being who was committed to the destruction of everything Jesus believed. And Jesus won against that dark power–and immediately started casting out demons and healing the sick. This course will teach us how to enter into Jesus’ worldview and how to stand against the powers of darkness. We will discover how to live in Jesus’ victory over the powers.
