Summer 2024 Quarter Classes
How Toddlers Thrive
Led by Pastor Fred, Chris Lu, Esther Hsieh, Jack & Rebecca Wang
Room 113
New research indicates that the seeds for adult success are actually planted in the toddler years, ages two to five. In How Toddlers Thrive, child psychologist and director of the renowned Barnard Center for Toddler Development Dr. Tovah P. Klein cracks the preschool code, revealing what you can do to help your toddler grow into a fulfilled child and adult. New research reveals that drivers such as resilience, self-reliance, self-regulation, and empathy are more critical to success than simple intelligence. How Toddlers Thrive explains why the toddler years are different from any other period during childhood, what is happening in children’s brains and bodies at this age that makes their behavior so turbulent, and why your reaction to their behavior holds the key to a successful tomorrow.
Church History: The Early Church
Led by Henry Ow, Samuel Huang, Chris Chee, Dan Tung, & Jason Tarn
Room 115
The church possesses a rich history. Its history enables us to understand the Bible better and deepen our worship of God. This class will examine the first 500 years of the church and its impact. This period of church history provides the historical context for how our understanding of Christ's incarnation developed. This class will consist of a 25-30 minute video lecture followed by discussion.
Fundamentals of Biblical Counseling
Led by John Hsieh, James Gao, James Hsia, & Melvin Huang
Room 210
This course is designed to provide you with practical knowledge and skills in biblical counseling. We will delve into the fundamental principles and practices, exploring key topics such as the power of the gospel to change lives, the process of change, the impact of sin, and sanctification. We will also learn practical skills about how to counsel. Throughout the course, there will be interviews with someone who has experienced biblical counseling as a counselee, a seasoned counselor, and someone considering becoming a biblical counselor.

In Acts 17:11, Paul noted that the Bereans “received the word with all eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily to see if these things were so”. Are we able to study the Bible each day like the Bereans did? In this class, we will study a passage of Scripture using the steps of observation, asking questions, interpretation and application of the text. To interpret the text, we will use the Bible as much as possible to answer our questions, along with tools such as lexicons and concordances. Attendees will actively participate in class sessions and are welcome to bring a tablet or laptop computer to class. At the conclusion of this class, attendees will be able to study a passage of the Bible and apply it to their lives. Further growth of these skills will occur as they continue to study the Bible on their own.

In the 2-year Old Testament Survey track, we will go through the 39 books of the OT by providing a high level overview of each book and its main ideas/themes. The OT helps us understand God's character and is the foundation for the New Testament. Through the OT, we also learn of God's promises and how they point to Jesus. This 12-week Spring quarter, we'll journey through the books of 1-2 Kings and the Pre-exilic Prophets. These books depict the decline of that nation of Israel that results in their eventual exile into Assyrian and then Babylon. The format of the class will be a blend of lecture, videos, discussion, and sharing. We hope that you can join us!
