An Adult Bible Fellowship (ABF) is a group which provides you with an opportunity to be a part of a smaller community within CFC with the aim of growing you closer to the Lord. ABFs are groups of generally 15 to 30 attenders who meet together each Sunday morning at 9:30am. The size of these groups makes interactive learning very effective and relationships easy to form. ABF classes provide opportunities for Bible study, building relationships, prayer and service. In short, ABFs provide you with the chance to grow as a follower of Jesus Christ. Another great thing about ABF’s is that they are always open to new people joining! We’d love to have you join an ABF on your first Sunday at Christian Fellowship Church.
Our Current Adult Bible Fellowships:
Ruth & Esther
9:30AM
Location: ALC-A
Teachers: Carl Martin & Ray Rambo
One was a foreigner and a peasant. The other, a reluctant queen to a man she hardly knew. But their stories have one thing in common: A remarkable faith committed to doing God’s will.
For both Ruth and Esther, God used stressful circumstances to bring about his eternal purposes. Ruth’s commitment to the God of Naomi affected every generation to come, as she became an ancestor of King David and more importantly, Jesus Christ. Esther’s obedience led to the preservation of her people at a moment in history when all seemed lost.
The stories of Ruth and Esther will make you contemplate: Would I trust God enough to do what they did?
Verse-By-Verse through the Book of Acts
9:30AM
Location: ALC-B
Teacher: Dan Scheuerlein
Join us as we study verse-by-verse through the book of Acts. Acts is a powerful book of the Bible that gives us insight into the early church. We will look at how the Holy Spirit impacted the early church. We will look at early church believers and their response to Jesus. We will also look at the struggles early missionaries faced as they sought to grow the church. We hope you will join us in this study!
The Power of the Holy Spirit’s Names
9:30AM
Location: FH-1
Teachers: Carl Garber, Paul Hartline, Larry Van Etten, & Irv Wenger
Who Is the Holy Spirit?
The Holy Spirit plays the incredible role of both empowering the individual believer and the church—and as we study the Trinity’s third member, we gain a clearer understanding of our omnipotent triune God.
In this six-session series, Dr. Tony Evans leads us on an in-depth exploration of the Spirit’s characteristics, duties, and mission among humankind. Take a closer look at some of the titles of the Spirit and appreciate how he influences and inspires our faith in Christ.
Never Quit: 5 Prayer Lessons From Luke 18:1-8
9:30AM
Location: FH-2
Teachers: Joe Finkey, Curt Stoltzfus, Kyle Kauffman, Errin Mulberry & Matt Meservy
In a short but powerful parable found in Luke 18:1-8, Jesus uses the persistence of a desperate widow to open our minds to the awesome love and sovereignty of God. In Never Quit, you will learn five powerful truths that will transform your prayer life.
Jesus knows what we’ve been through and he knows what’s ahead. He knows how easy it will be for us to give up. And so in kindness, he offers us a way out; or perhaps to say it a better way, he offers us a way through. He teaches us how to never quit.
The Book of 2 Timothy
9:30AM
Location: FH-3
Teachers: Don Aldrich, Ted Andrew, & Rick Culp
The book of 2 Timothy is a letter from Paul to Timothy that teaches readers what it means to be a disciple and how to disciple others. And its center point is the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Join us as we walk through the book of 2 Timothy. Learn what it means for disciples to be entrusted with the gospel, shaped by the gospel, and driven by the responsibility of sharing the gospel with others.

Upcoming Adult Bible Fellowships
Christ In All Of Scripture – Women’s ABF
Time: 9:30AM
Location: Fellowship Hall 6
Teachers: Sharon Shearer & Tasha Donaldson
Start Date: 9/13/26
You may have heard that all of Scripture points to Christ, but do you know what that means?
If you’re like many Christians, you might spend far more time in the New Testament than you do in the Old.
You’re not alone in feeling like the Old Testament is intimidating!
It is full of laws about how to offer sacrifices, lengthy instructions about how to build things, prophecies that we find hard to understand, and lots and lots of hard-to-pronounce names. It can feel strange, confusing, and—dare we say—irrelevant for us as Christians.
But these two testaments tell one story, and they are far more intertwined than we sometimes realize. That story begins in the Old Testament, and it contains numerous threads that run throughout and find their resolution in the New Testament. Because of this, we cannot fully appreciate the New Testament without also appreciating the Old—and vice versa.
And standing at the center of this one story that unites both testaments is Jesus Christ.
He Himself is the main character and climax of the story begun in the Old Testament. For that reason, we can appropriately say that Jesus Christ is present in all of Scripture, not just a quarter of it.
FOUND: God’s Will
Time: 9:30AM
Location: Fellowship Hall 4
Teachers: Tyler Noel, Josh Sensenig, Ethan Cornwell
Start Date: August 16
Why is it so difficult to figure out God’s will for my life?
In Found: God’s Will, trusted pastor and teach John MacArthur tackles this vital question head-on. Throughout the study, we will learn 6 powerful principles that will give us confidence and direction, fill us with purpose, and give us the confidence to live in step with God’s plan. This study will go through the month of August in our Young Adults Class.
