School of Discipleship

At Redeemer, School of Discipleship (our Sunday School) is a key component of our church life as we learn and grow together, building one another up in the faith. We offer classes for all ages, and nursery care is available as well. The fall semester will begin on Sunday, September 7. All classes begin at 10:15 a.m.

Nursery Care

From their birth, we recognize that our covenant children are gifts from God to be cherished and enfolded into the life of the church. Led by Nursery Coordinator Lisal McDonald, our nursery is staffed by both agency workers and Redeemer volunteers. We want to provide a safe, clean, and nurturing environment for our young ones to know the love of Christ from their earliest days.

Children’s Curriculum

This year we have adopted the Show Me Jesus Bible curriculum from Great Commission Publications as our source for the children’s classes from 2 years old through 5th grade. They do a good job of presenting the unfolding story of salvation in scripture with Jesus at the center, while highlighting the sovereignty of God and his grace in the covenant, all from a Reformed perspective.
 
Youth in middle school will be studying the book of Exodus and the high schoolers will be studying major historic creeds.

Adult School of Discipleship

The 2026 Winter/Spring Semester will feature three courses for adults. All classes meet each Sunday at 10:15 a.m. in Calvin Hall – specific room numbers can be seen below.  View the course descriptions below and be sure to reach out to Pastor Jon with any questions! 

The Disciple’s Life led by Pastor Jon Herr, Room 206
As Christians, we are more than “Christ followers” we are disciples- apprentices of the resurrected Christ.   Yet this theme, though prominent in the New Testament, is often misunderstood and misapplied in the Christian life.  This spring, we will explore the honor, the pathway, and outcomes of discipleship from the scriptures and from the discipleship categories articulated by our Session last fall.  We hope at the end of this class we will have a clearer understanding of our calling in Christ, the privilege of that calling, and what can do and expect as we walk the path of Christ together at Redeemer.

Reformed Spiritual Formation led by Redeemer Elders & Members, Room 207
The Reformed Tradition has a reputation for being “all head” and “no heart.”  However, at the center of our theology is a robust spirituality that emerges from God’s word, reformational values, prayer and meditation.  This spring, Redeemer elders and members will draw from Matthew Bingham’s, “A Heart Aflame for God,” discussing the counters of Reformed spirituality with the hope that class discussion will lead to a deeper and richer connection to Christ, and appreciation for the spiritual heritage of our tradition. 

Westminster Confession of Faith led by Pastor Marcus Serven & Ruling Elder Rick Mealer, Room 208
Have you ever wanted to know what you believe and why you believe it? Over this Winter/Spring term Pastor Marcus Serven and Ruling Elder Rick Mealer will teach through the Westminster Confession of Faith (Chapters 1-8). There will be plenty of handouts for you to study and reflect on at home, plus numerous opportunities to ask your questions and get cogent answers from the Bible. It is important for you to know that our church sees the Westminster Confession of Faith as an accurate summary of the Bible’s teaching. Moreover, all of our church officers—pastors, elders, and deacons—pledge to teach and uphold these doctrines as the core beliefs of the Christian faith. Therefore, it is vitally important to understand these doctrines and how best to defend them against the skeptics of the present age. Come and join us for a systematic review of one of the most important documents of the past four hundred years—the Westminster Confession of Faith

Beginning March 8, 2026 Intro to Redeemer led by Pastor Eric Landry, Room 210
Join Pastor Eric for six weeks at the end of the Winter/Spring School of Discipleship semester for an introduction to Redeemer! This class is mandatory for those who want to become members. It will also be a helpful refresher to others who already belong to our community. Beginning March 8, we’ll explore topics like the reason for membership, the meaning of Presbyterianism, how the gospel leads to worship, what a disciple of Jesus looks like, and important theological issues that distinguish Redeemer from other churches.
