Presbyterian Classes Courses

Presbyterian classes are classes offered within the Presbyterian Church that focus on theological education. These classes can range from as short as a one-day seminar to as long as a two or three year program of study. They are primarily for adults, but some congregations will offer classes for children as well. The classes are focused on teaching the fundamentals of the Christian faith and the understanding of the Presbyterian beliefs, as well as providing an opportunity to learn more about the scriptures and the ways in which these teachings are expressed in one’s daily life. The classes are designed to accommodate both those who have been Christians for a long time and those who are relatively new to the faith. They can be attended by anyone from current church members to those who are simply curious about the teachings of the Church. At the end of the course, many congregations will offer certificates of completion or special recognition for those who attend and successfully complete the program. Presbyterian classes are offered both as part of a normal Sunday worship service and/or as special classes which meet outside of regularly scheduled worship services. In some cases, the classes may be offered online or through audio recordings. No matter what format the classes may be offered in, the goal is always the same: to provide an opportunity to learn essential Christian theological truths and to grow in one’s understanding of the Presbyterian faith.
