Our First Theology Course Graduates

Training the next church leaders of Orange County

On Sunday, we celebrated our first graduating class from the Theology Course. These men engaged in a rigorous 18-month course of study to grow in their knowledge and love of the Lord. They read 4000 pages averaging 30 minutes of reading per day and totaling 268 hours. They each wrote 6 papers on various theological and biblical topics.

Natalie, the wife of one of our graduates, shared the following during our service:

I think I can speak for the church in saying; Wes, Grant, Israel, Dylan, Jeff and Dave, thank you for your faith, your time, your sacrifice, and your love for Christ. We are so excited to see God use you and watch His glory unfold through His church. Thank you for inspiring us to hold fast to Christ.

I’ll close with Colossians 2:6-7:

“So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.”

These men are to be commended for their hard work. Their wives are to be commended for making room in their schedules for them to do this. We’re praying their efforts will bear fruit as they continue to serve among us.

A big thank you to Israel, Dave, Dylan, Wes, Grant, and Jeff (who’s not pictured above because he is serving at our sister church in Santa Ana). May God use you for the strengthening of His church and the advance of the gospel.
