Adult Ministry

The adult ministries at Bethany United Methodist Church offer a variety of ways in which we minister to adults. Examples include educational classes and forums, fellowship groups, outings, retreats, and much more. Listed below are just a few of the opportunities available.

Adult Education

Bethany offers a variety of studies each year. These range from short-term studies or focused topics to year-long survey courses of the entire Bible.  Currently all classes are held via Zoom.  For specific links to these classes, check our Upcoming Events page.  Current studies include:

Faithlink

Sundays, 8:45 am in person and on Zoom

Faithlink is on hiatus until September.  This class connects our faith to current issues facing each of us every day.

Back to School with Pastor Brad

Tuesdays, 10:00 am on Zoom

Our current class is 12-week lecture series titled The History of the Bible: The Making of the New Testament Canon.”  Taught by Dr. Bart Ehrman, a professor at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and bestselling author, the class explores the historical process by which the books of the New Testament were assembled into a single canon.  To learn more about the class go to  the Great Courses website and search for “The History of the Bible.”

Classes are held on Tuesday mornings beginning at 10:00. Friends and guests are always welcome. And remember – attendance is never taken.
