Welcoming the Stranger

Tuesday, February 11 & 18
6:30 – 8:00 pm
The Peak Church

Immigration is one of the most hotly debated topics in our nation today. Political fearmongering and misinformation run rampant in our news feeds and our communities. Many of us find ourselves unsure of what is actually happening at our southern border, let alone how we as Christians are called to respond. To be clear, this class is not for political debates or arguing for one party’s immigration policy over another. Instead, we will explore the biblical themes of migration and welcoming the stranger as we learn together how to be faithful followers of Jesus with strangers in our midst. This class will also equip you with action steps to make a difference in the lives of immigrants here in Wake County and beyond.

Making Sense of the Old Testament

Tuesday, Feb 25  & Mar 4
6:30-8:00pm
The Peak Church

Does the Old Testament intimidate, confuse, or even frustrate you? Do you struggle to reconcile the way God is depicted or history is told in the Old Testament with the life of Jesus in the New Testament? Many Christians feel this way and avoid the Old Testament altogether, even though it makes up 2/3 of our Bible and is the only Scripture Jesus had when he walked the earth! In this class, taught by Peak member Chris Meade (who studied Biblical Theology at Wheaton), we’ll explore practical ways to engage the Old Testament with fresh eyes. We’ll consider how ancient audiences understood these stories—not only as historical accounts, but as rich symbolic narratives that reveal deeper truths about human nature, moral order, and our connection to God. By approaching the text with an ancient worldview and modern interpretive tools, we’ll discover how the dramatic events, characters, and imagery of the Old Testament align with and illuminate the central message of Scripture that ultimately leads us to Christ. Come join us as we uncover the timeless wisdom and relevance of these sacred stories for our lives today.

Lent Study: Seven Words

Every Wednesday Mar 12 thru Apr 9 
6:30-7:30 pm
The Peak Church

When people are nearing death, their final words are often poignant. Whether they offer reassurance or instructions for the future, the last words of the dying almost always aim to communicate deep love for the people closest to them. As we draw near to Jesus’ death, the idea of spending six weeks at the cross —  a place of sorrow, suffering, and shame — may seem daunting. It’s tempting to want to skip from the joy of waving palm branches to shouting alleluia on Easter morning. But the truth is that, as people often do on their deathbeds, Jesus speaks and shows his deepest love for us on the cross. This Lent we will dive deep into the last words Jesus spoke before his death. Using Susan Robb’s book Seven Words: Listening to Christ from the Cross as our guide, we will explore how Jesus’ final words demonstrate his deep love for us and offer us instructions for life as his disciples.

Prayer Labyrinth

April 14-17
Times Vary

Want to deepen your spiritual disciplines this Lent? During Holy Week, a prayer labyrinth will be available in the sanctuary for self-guided walking meditation. The labyrinth is an active yet meditative prayer practice that serves as a metaphor for life. In life and in the labyrinth, we don’t know where the path will take us. We don’t foresee the twists and turns that the future holds, but we know that the path leads us to the center: God.

This is a self-guided event. Drop by at your convenience! There will be materials available to guide your labyrinth walk when you arrive. The sanctuary will be open for you to walk the labyrinth:
Monday 4/14 10:00 am-2:00 pm
Tuesday 4/15 10:00 am-2:00 pm 
Wednesday 4/16 10:00 am-2:00 pm and 5:00-8:00 pm
