The mission of our church is to be all things to all people by all means. We believe that this mission is not only a charge for us to those outside the church but also to those inside the church who are committed disciples of Christ. The AC Academy is important because it creates a unique space within the church where members and non-members have the opportunity to grow in their love for God by growing in their knowledge of God. The AC Academy is distinct from every other ministry of the church because it focuses primarily on education through growing in biblical literacy and developing proper theology within the people here at All Church.
In short, it is important to us because we believe everyone is being discipled by something and we want to ensure that the people of All Church are being discipled by the Word of God and are growing in their understanding of God.

Regular in-person church attendance is a biblical expectation for all believers as we will be formed to look more like Christ as we gather together as the body of Christ and sit underneath the preaching of God's Word for a lifetime. For those that wish to go deeper into their understanding of God's Word, the AC Academy is their outlet. The Academy creates a unique space for dialogue and interaction with the teacher, which is not available on Sunday mornings, that cultivates lasting comprehension of the subject at hand. This is not to say that you will not grow from the preaching on Sundays, you will, but we believe that the AC Academy allows us to create spaces devoted to deeper and prolonged studies on specific topics that will further equip you to walk in faithfulness to God's Word.

IMPORTANT: The classes, studies and seminars offered in the AC Academy are supplemental to Sunday mornings, not a substitute. Sunday gatherings are the priority, academy classes are an extra offering.

The AC Academy is not an AC Group. They are distinctly different ministries trying to achieve two separate goals in our larger vision of discipleship here at All Church. 
AC Groups are smaller gathering of individuals that meet weekly for an indefinite period of time that discuss life and questions pertaining to the sermon from the previous Sunday. The main goal of AC Groups is to grow in community and fellowship as you apply God's word to your life. AC Groups develop disciples through biblical community.

The AC Academy is made up of larger gatherings of people that meet for classes and studies that run anywhere from 6-14 weeks long that will require homework outside of the class. The main goal of the AC Academy is to focus on education through growing biblical literacy and developing a proper theology. The AC Academy develops disciples through biblical education.
See our Holistic Discipleship Vision to see how all of our ministries work together to form holistic disciples of Christ. 

Yes! The classes and studies of the AC Academy are a place where anyone can come and learn about God as he has revealed himself in his word. Whether a life-long Christian or still a skeptic, we invite you to come take our classes to learn about the God who has done more than we could ever ask or imagine. This is a place for charitable disagreement, honest questions, and intentional study of the Bible.

We recommend starting with one of our three core classes that are offered every year: (1) Bible Doctrine, (2) The Story of the Bible, or (3) Spiritual Disciplines. 

The AC Academy calendar is broken into three seasons in which new classes will be offered:

Spring Classes: January - April
Summer Classes: May - August
Fall Classes: September - December

We ask that you do not sign up for a class if you know you are going to miss more than two classes. Regular attendance is an important aspect to lasting and thorough comprehension.
