Adult Education at

Bon Air Presbyterian Church

The Adult Education committee at Bon Air is committed to providing educational opportunities for all adults. Whether you are new to the Christian Faith, or a seasoned veteran, we have opportunities that engage people where they are on their own Faith Journeys. We hope that you will join us every Sunday morning for Sunday school as we grow in faith together. Classes change on a semester basis, and we are intentional about choosing topics that meet the needs of everyone. These classes are usually in a small group setting, and on occasion, we all gather together for inter-generational classes and seminars.

Feasting on the Word

The Feasting on the Word Curriculum adapts adapting the Feasting on the Word commentary approaches to study of one of the lectionary passages in ways suitable for all participants.  The Curriculum and the Commentary streams are related this way.

What? (Exegetical).

Basic information about backgrounds and meanings of biblical passages are essential to understanding. This stream asks “What?” are the important things to know about the contexts, language, and settings of the biblical passage.

Where? (Theological)

To understand the meanings of passages, we also need to ask “Where?”— Where is God in this passage? Where are God’s will and activities being expressed? Theological questions about where God’s word comes to us in the passage are significant.

So What? (Pastoral)

The implication of the passage for our Christian lives makes the biblical passage come alive. We ask, “So what?” What does this passage mean to me? What does it mean for my relationship with God and other people?

Now What? (Homiletical)

Biblical passage shapes our understandings and lives in the church. They connect us with needs in God’s world. So we ask, “Now what?” This prompts us to reflect on how our life and the church’s life can live out what the passage is saying.
