That Man Called Jesus
The Gospel of John may be the shortest book you’ve ever read for a book club, but it will likely foster as much discussion as any long book that you’ve read. In this class, we take an interactive and conversational approach to studying the Gospel of John to uncover the person of Jesus through the eyes of one of his closest friends. Everyone is welcome to participate in this discussion whether you are new to the Bible, just checking it out or looking to re-engage your faith.
6 weeks, at the Renew Church offices beginning Thursday, April 14, 7:00-9:00pm
how it works
RenewU is made up of three different levels followed by one additional level dedicated to leadership development (Scale) that is unlimited in its scope. Within each of our three foundational levels, we will cover five core elements of biblical discipleship which we call Seek, Stick, Study, Serve and Share. RenewU also includes various electives (felt needs, contemporary issues, etc.) that you can take whenever you want, with a requirement to complete three before graduating to the 400 level.
The pathway through RenewU is as follows (working from the bottom up):

what are the assignments?
will i be graded?
Your progress will be monitored by your Renew Group leader to help you move through the pathway. You will be required to complete all checkpoints on each level before moving on to the next level, but checkpoints within a level can be completed in any order. All checkpoints in levels 100-300, as well as 3 electives, must be completed before a disciple can graduate to the 400 level.
can i study with others?
You are free to move through RenewU individually or in groups. Renew Groups may wish to tackle a checkpoint together. Families may choose to complete one together. Friends might invite other friends to work through a checkpoint together. There are no limits to how you can work with others.
