"So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught and overflowing with thankfulness." (Colossians 2:6-7 NIV)


 

Similar terms for spiritual growth are "discipleship" and "spiritual formation." We use these various terms to describe the process that the Bible refers to as becoming like Jesus. Another Biblical word is "sanctification" (i.e. the process of becoming holy). Scriptures such as Matthew 28:16-20, Luke 6:40; Romans 8:29; Ephesians 4:11-16; Colossians 2:6-7; and 1 John 2:6 illustrate the goal of this spiritual journey we find ourselves on. 

The following are some of the opportunities we offer here at RCC to help you in your spiritual growth:

Adult Bible Classes

On Sunday mornings we have several classes that meet together on a weekly basis to explore how God's word intersects with real life. They study Scripture while living out what it means to be a Biblical community who cares for one another. Here is a list of our current Adult Bible Classes. Information on their current study can be obtained from the church.

Adult Elective Studies

We also offer a variety of shorter-term studies on Sunday mornings that provide Biblically-based wisdom for living in critical areas: spiritual growth, marriage, parenting, women, men, finances, etc. These studies are offered at both 9:15 and 10:45. Contact the church for a schedule of our current and upcoming studies.

    O God, you are my God,
       earnestly I seek you;
     my soul thirsts for you,
       my body longs for you,
     in a dry and weary land
       where there is no water.

—Psalm 63:1
