This course will focus on the major Jewish holidays in the Bible: Passover, Shavuot (Pentecost), Rosh Hashana, Yom Kippur, Succot (Feast of Tabernacles), and Shabat (the Sabbath). We will review how and why they are celebrated. In addition, we will try to understand how each one represents elements of Jesus’ life, ministry, and purpose.

This workshop on curriculum design is adapted from "The Learning Cycle" by Muriel and Duane Elmer (Intervarsity Press, 2020). In this presentation, we will learn how to structure curriculum so that those we teach remember, value, and are changed by the lessons we give.

Learning to pray is the proper starting point for the study of theology. This course is designed to give class participants a basic introduction to the practice and theology of prayer in the Christian tradition. Course sessions will explore the theological framework of prayer and study the prayers of the Bible as a pattern for our own prayers. Following this class, students will be able to evaluate the dynamics of their personal prayer lives and be prepared to lead corporate prayer services.

The Moravian Daily Texts are much more than simply another devotional. Published every year since 1731, the Daily Texts include Old and New Testament passages for the reader to reflect on through the day, portions of hymns, and carefully written prayers. This one-hour workshop will discuss what these texts are and how they can be used in both personal and corporate settings.

This workshop is for everyone who is interested in leading prayer services in one of Aqueduct Project's online prayer rooms. In this skills-based workshop, we will introduce and practice the features of Zoom that best serve the purposes of community prayer online. We will also provide an overview of our five new prayer rooms in VR (virtual reality).

The Last Supper is one of the most important events in final week of Jesus' ministry in Jerusalem but there appears to be a significant difference between the Gospels in the way that they narrate this event. Did Jesus celebrate the Last Supper as a Passover meal (as the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke seem to indicate) or before the Passover (as the Gospel of John states)? New research leads to a fresh answer about this quandy which was debated even in the ancient church!
