Equipping classes provide a variety of quality Christian instruction and discipleship from trained Bible teachers to Hope Bible Church members and visitors on Sundays with the aim of maturing their faith, obedience, and love toward Jesus Christ.
We are continuing our Equipping classes with 4 courses available. All classes are open to both members and visitors alike. Learn more about how you can grow in your faith by selecting from the list of classes below.
The book of Hebrews is perhaps the best commentary written on the Old
Testament covenant, priesthood, and sacrifices. It brings the richness of the Old Testament background into the world of the New Testament church. This class will unpack the mystery and the meaning of God’s promise concerning Jesus Christ. If you have ever wanted to understand the book of Hebrews and learn how to apply it to your Christian life, this class is for you. Join us as we learn how Jesus Christ is preeminent over all.
Teacher: Pastor Rob Thomson
Room: Wycliffe
A wise teacher once gave this advice to those desiring to grow in Christ:
“Master the Master.” It’s true that the more we understand the life of Christ—not just what He said and did, but perhaps more importantly His character, His thinking, and His heart—the more we’ll worship Him and desire to be truly like Him. In this class, we’ll take 12 months to go verse-by-verse through a harmony of all four of the gospels in chronological order with a particular emphasis on application. The extensive notes will be helpful for your study and reference.
Teacher: Pastor Alan Plumley
Room: Whitefield
This course is the gateway to all of our other Equipping Classes as it establishes you in the essentials of Christian doctrine, devotion, and discipleship. The course material is equally beneficial to you whether you are a first-time student or a seasoned saint looking for material to train others. Join us as we go back to the basics and focus on the fundamentals of the Christian faith!
Teacher: Pastor Michael Jarvis
Room: Knox
Disagreements, arguments, conflict—we all have them! We are sandpaper people in a sandpaper world. Friction is a part of life. This class will help you understand the source, nature, and solutions to conflict and help you learn to reconcile and become a peacemaker for God’s glory.

Room: Hus
HopeAbility is a ministry that aims to reach the hearts of people with special needs and their families with the hope of the gospel through worship, discipleship, and evangelism. Its goal is to compassionately include all persons with differing abilities as necessary and contributing members of the Church body as we worship and minister together to the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Teacher: Mr. Larry Irvine
Room: Luther
