Christianity 101

Christianity 101 is an adult Sunday School class of the First Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) of Garland, Texas. We concentrate on weekly Bible study - a chapter a week of a book of the Old or New Testament. We take this approach to Bible study: 1) What does it say? 2) What does it mean? 3) So what? Every week we add new slides as we develop our class materials for that Sunday's class. The current class in progress will always be at the top of the list.

II Thessalonians Study

Paul wrote II Thessalonians about 6 months after I Thessalonians – It was an update letter to let them know how proud he was, to encourage them and to give them more details on what he saw coming.

Some Facts about the City of Thessalonica:
