3. Our adult class prefers a lecture approach. In addition, we’d like the learn more about what Cumberland Presbyterians believe? What suggestions can you make?

4. The people in our adult class like discussion and a Bible study. What can you suggest?

5. We want our children to grow up knowing more than just biblical facts. We want them to be able to interpret the Bible. What should we look at first?
