Guys Only: God made you for relationships, what does that look like? 

Relationships are good. Healthy relationships are even better. Throughout life you’ll have relationships with both guys and girls. So, how do you nurture healthy relationships? Who should you make relationships with? What does the Bible say about phileo (friendship) love? What does the Bible say about romantic love? Looking for and nurturing healthy relationships is what this elective will cover.

Forgiveness. How do I forgive even when it seems impossible?

Dad missed my ballgame. Mom said she’d always be there for me. My birth parents abandoned me. My boyfriend took advantage of me. My best friend no longer talks to me. I know the Bible tells me to forgive and forget, but that’s not always as easy as it seems. So, how do I do that? How do I forgive and forget when it seems impossible? How can I let go of this pain and be healed when the wrongs that have been done to me and the hurts harbored within me are unimaginable? This elective will talk about forgiveness, not in a way that will guilt you, but that will bring healing and hope to you.

Death. How to deal with it? 

Pandemic, war, famine, accidents, suicide, aging parents and dying grandparents. No matter where we look in this world, since mankind’s fall into sin, the reality and threat of death is something we constantly find ourselves faced with. So, how do we deal with this? The world around us would have you either deny or ignore it or make you believe we’ll soon be able to cure it. But what if death has already been cured? And, therefore, what if the way to deal with death is not by denying or ignoring it, but by looking to the one who conquered it and gives hope beyond it? This elective will focus on the living hope we have in Christ, noting that – though we do grieve it and may even fear it – Christ is able to give hope and peace when dealing with death.

Creative Arts. Using my gifts for God’s glory.

Sports. Living out my faith on the field.

Sports are good. But, like all good things, sports can also become an idol (something we love and find our identity in more than God). So, how do I balance these things? How do I remain in the faith and live out my faith, not abandon my faith, while on the playing field?
