Chatham Formation Classes

Chatham Formation Classes are designed to offer comprehensive spiritual formation through teaching and training. We use this time to make disciples of Jesus through four core areas of instruction, including Sound Doctrine, Christian Vocation, Spiritual Practices and Missional Living. We also utilize this time for prayer, fellowship, ministry connections and more throughout the year.


All classes and events begin at 9 a.m. unless otherwise noted, and everyone is welcome to attend, though some classes may require prior registration. A lift is available in the gym for upstairs access.

See children's Sunday School details on our Kids & Youth page.

Formation ClassES - SUMMER 2025

Our Summer session runs June 1-July 27.

  • Gospel Shaped Living
    Led by Pastor Josh Govier, Room 24/25 Upstairs

    | CHRISTIAN VOCATION |

    The Church of Christ should be a distinctive community of Gods' people—but how different are we, really, from the rest of the world? Explore God's Word to untangle some of the false ideas and traditions that have shaped church life in the past, and to reveal the more deeply challenging picture that emerges from the Scriptures.

  • The Book of Amos
    Led by Chuck Hlavaty, Fellowship Room Upstairs

    | SOUND DOCTRINE |

    Come hear about a small-town hick who took on the shakers and movers of Washington D.C. and turned the city upside down! (Oliver North?) But really, this happened in the time of Jonah, and the city was Bethel, the religious center of Baalism in the Northern Kingdom. It was Amos, with a message from GOD! See how God fights the battles, and how He sustains us in our walk.
