We would love to have you join us as we “come and see” Jesus, the Christ, the Son of God, the one who has the power of eternal life and the only one who can give us hope and peace in this tumultuous world.

Summer Wednesdays
9:30-11:30 a.m. | Room 112
June-August
We meet to examine some of the many ways God has provided us to know Him better and grow in godliness through helpful spiritual disciplines.
We’ve all experienced our flesh working against the Spirit, trying to prevent and distract us from times of prayer, Bible reading, and other habits that help us to know Him more. But God is so good to us and has provided us with a family, including many sisters in Christ, to support, encourage, and testify to how these practices can change from duty to delight through perseverance.
During the summer, join us for whatever Wednesdays you are available to hear how, through various spiritual disciplines, God loves, redeems, restores, and replaces duty with delight.
Men's Ministry
We exist to help men grow in their faith, fellowship with others, and become leaders in their homes, churches, and communities.
Men's Fellowship
THURSDAYS
6:30-7:30 a.m. | ROOM 106
A men’s Bible study meets weekly to read and discuss scripture, share personal insights, and grow in their faith.
Armor of God
EVERY OTHER TUESDAY & SATURDAY
Tuesday = 6:30-7:30 a.m.
Saturday = 8:00-9:00 a.m.
ROOM 106
As the baby boomers are called to glory, young men will be the leaders of their families, workplaces, and North Park Church. The elders’ role is to equip men to be ready for this task. To that end, Andy Kish and Phil Van Sickel are offering a class on the Westminster Confession of Faith (WCF) to train men to wear the full armor of God. This includes how to wield the Sword of the Spirit (God’s Word) to advance the kingdom of God right up to the gates of hell.
The WCF will be our curriculum. Men will learn ten disciplines (Bible Reading, Prayer, Meditation, Fasting, Simplicity, etc.) to apply their learning to their personal development. Men also be divided into smaller accountability teams of two to three to help them stay faithful to their walk with Christ.
The early time of day is to avoid interfering with the family/work life. It is early for some, but the class is only one day every 14 days. This is a great way to build new habits that will benefit men for the rest of their life. Coffee and light food will be provided.
Sunday School
SUNDAYS (Starting Sept. 8)
9:00-10:00 a.m. | Rooms Below
September-May
Answering Tough Questions: Growing in Confidence to Share the Faith
Pastor Ben | Room 112
Have you ever held back from discussing the faith because you didn’t know how to answer a hard question? Don’t let these hard questions hold you back anymore! Bring the questions that might hold you back to this class, and we’ll discuss ways to answer and engage these questions.
Prophet, Priest, and King: The Patriarchs
Dale Wiggins | Room 109
In Eden, God calls Adam to be the prophet of His words, the priest to lead in worship, and the king over His creation. These offices are handed down through the line of patriarchs as God moves toward His plan to call an entire nation to follow Him. In this class, we will not only study the book of Genesis but also explore how God’s relationship with the patriarchs can inspire and guide our own spiritual growth. Let’s delve into these three roles and discover how they were an integral part of God’s relationship.
Local Church Leadership in the 21st Century
Pastor Ken Priddy | Room 111
The 21st century sees challenges to the church that 20th century church leaders might never have imagined. This class is designed to equip you with the knowledge and understanding needed to navigate these challenges. While truth is still truth, while the word of God is still the word of God, while the Great Commission is still the Great Commission, ministry effectiveness today demands shifts from 20th century church-as-usual thinking to 21st century church-as-needed rethinking. What does God want from his churches today? What do our congregations and communities need from our churches today? Let’s consider these vital questions together!
