Theology for Everyday Life: Understanding the Westminster Confession of Faith and Why It Matters
It is important to revisit the foundations of the Reformed tradition to help us understand our identity as a Reformed church and how Scripture shapes our life together. In an age when many often feel rootless and skeptical, the Westminster Confession of Faith (WCF) provides a clear and thoughtful summary of biblical teaching that has guided faithful Christians since the mid-17th century. As one writer pointed out, "It is good to study texts which remind us that Christianity was not invented last Tuesday."
In the class, we will look at the WCF, exploring its historical background and its major doctrines: God, Scripture, salvation, worship, the church, and eschatology (the study of last things). We will also look through it to consider how these truths shape worship, ministry, and life in the modern world. No prior knowledge of the WCF is necessary to enjoy this class—just come curious.
Join us this fall for a 12-week class starting on September 7th at 8:45 AM as we rediscover a classic confession that helps Christians think, worship, and live with peace and joy. All are welcome!
