Simply Christianity Course:This six-week course will help you explore the heart of the Christian faith in a relaxed atmosphere. Enjoy dinner and discussion as we read Luke's account of Jesus of Nazareth. Our goal is to find out who he really is, what he came to do, and what this means for the world and us. This course was offered in summer 2011, and is offered occasionally at SJR.

This is a brand new course that was offered in summer 2011 on Monday and Thursday nights. Based on classic Christian catechism, the material is useful both for those interested in adult Baptism or Confirmation and in refreshing their understanding of the essential shape of Christianity.

"Christianity Explored" course: Whether you have previous experience of church, Christians and the Bible, or none at all, this group will provide you with a relaxed setting in which to consider, discuss and ask questions about the Christian faith.
Developed over 10 years, the Christianity Explored Course is a formal course with 7 sessions. The course is based on the Gospel of Mark, and designed to allow participants to explore who Jesus is, why He came, and what it means to follow Him.
Each session will start with coffee and dessert. Then the group will view a professional video designed to explain an aspect of Christian belief and to stimulate group discussion. The group leaders will facilitate discussion and try to answer questions.
We hope that you'll find the course challenging and the video though provoking. This course is also available on a one-to-one tutoring basis, please call the church office at:
"Discovering Christ" course: At one time or another, we are all faced with life's tough questions – questions about meaning, purpose and the divine, questions worth exploring, questions that really matter for finding our way in life.

The course seeks to provide a relaxed environment in which to explore Christian perspectives on God and spirituality, suffering and meaning. There is a total of five sessions spread over a five week period, giving you plenty of opportunity to discuss with others interested in similar things and lots of time to think in between sessions.
| Week 1: | God: How does anyone know God exists? |
| Week 2: | In search of the real Jesus |
| Week 3: | Jesus and other religions: Don't all religious leaders say basically the same thing? |
| Week 4: | How could God allow suffering and evil? |
| Week 5: | What is spirituality? A discussion of faith in real life |
