Playlists
1st of Each Month on our
Desert Cross Faith Formation Website
Playlists explore a topic using a variety of activities (reading, scripture, listening to music, watching a video, playing a game, discussing questions, studying art, etc.). We choose a theme each month and post Playlists designed for Children, Youth, and Adults on our Desert Cross Faith Formation Website. Together we study the same topic but with different content.

Pastor Class with Pastor Steve
Glimpses of God in the Psalms of Lent
March 6, 13, 20, & April 10
Thursdays 7:00pm
Tempe Fellowship Hall
The psalms have been called the "Prayerbook of the Bible." During the four sessions of this class, we'll be looking at the context and content of eight psalms that have been traditionally read during the season of Lent. When we see how each psalmist related to God in various life situations, we'll be able to see how God continues to be present in every circumstance of our own lives. Each session will last about one hour, and will provide time for questions and reflection. For more information and to sign up, contact Pastor Steve at sholm90@gmail.comMeditation Group

Dinner with Acts
May 7, 14, 21, & 28
Wednesdays Dinner @ 6:00pm/Class @ 7:00pm
Gilbert Site
What lessons can we learn from the early church? What challenges did the apostles face that are still applicable to us today? How does their boldness, unity and perseverance speak to our present circumstances. Come to Pastor Thadd’s class on the Book of Acts to wrestle with these questions and any others you have on the sequel to Luke’s gospel. We will gather at the Gilbert campus on four Wednesday evenings in May beginning May 7th. A potluck dinner starts at 6:00pm, and the class will take place 7:00-8:00pm.
