School of the Bible
Nothing beats the Bible in terms of its power to advance spiritual growth. In fact, recent studies have revealed that spending time in the Bible is hands down the strongest personal spiritual practice that will help impact your growth as a Christ follower. That’s why Mount Hope Church has developed School of the Bible.
Classes are offered over three seasons during the year: fall, winter, and spring. Courses vary in length from three to twelve weeks depending on the individual study. Study topics fall into four categories (described below) and are held in a variety of formats, from large group lectures to interactive teaching in smaller settings. Classes are $10 unless otherwise indicated.
Everyone is free to engage in any of the classes. If a student has not taken the 'Four Steps to Ignite Your Life' track, we encourage you to start with these classes — they are foundational for seekers, starters, and returners and are prerequisites to serving in ministry at Mount Hope Church.
