Adult Education
Adult Christian Education
Adult education at St. John the Divine is ultimately about discipleship. Discipleship is the relationship we stand in with Jesus in order that we might take on his character and more increasingly, routinely, and easily do the things he said and did. But to know these we must study his Word.
