School of Life and Doctrine

Our School of Life and Doctrine (SOLD) is designed to fit our philosophy of ministry as one of the places where we labor and toil to present ourselves perfect in Christ. To this end we offer classes for all ages during the academic year. True discipleship occurs when doctrine shapes our life and deepens our confession and our practice. As Paul instructed Timothy: "Keep a close watch on your life and doctrine . Persist in this for by so doing you will save yourself and your hearers." - 1 Tim 4.16

We offer three 8-week sessions (Fall, Winter, Spring) on Wednesdays at Zion Lutheran School (Lovers Lane at Skillman: MAP) from 6:00-7:00 pm. A simple meal is available starting at 5:15 pm for all who RSVP to Jan James by Tuesday at 3:00 pm. Suggested donation is $3 per person but no more than $10 per family.


 The Spring 2010 session will run from March 24 until May 12 (not on March 31) and classes are:
