Fellowship Lay Academy (FLA) is the theological equipping classroom taught by Pastor Jason at Fellowship. The Lay Academy is designed for serious students and novice students alike.
If you will commit to showing up and doing the work then this class is for you! FLA will run in a two-year cycle (comprised of 8-week semesters) and will center on four essential historical Christian disciplines: Biblical Interpretation, Church History, Dogmatic Theology, and Practical Theology. Each discipline is arranged around those four classes that will take place over the next two years.
Two weeks from first class you’ll receive your syllabus, and a little homework to prepare in advance. This will also give you time to get the book needed for the class and print out the class companion.
This semester will focus on Christian Ethics, which pulls together the threads of doctrine, theology, church history, and hermeneutics to show how these individual disciplines govern one's entire life. In this course we will explore how the follower of Jesus should live and love through the lenses of race and culture, politics, and critical issues surrounding reproduction (abortion, IVF, surrogacy, adoption). Christian Ethics will equip you to think better, love deeper, and live more like Jesus.
Special note: Completion of previous semesters of Lay Academy is NOT required to attend this semester!
