About DNSS

DNSS is what we call our adult teaching time at Grain of Wheat. It stands for "Definitely Not Sunday School." The "Not" part suggest that we do things a little different.

At DNSS there are more conversations and less lectures, more ways to engage the senses such as books, film, music and maybe even some art, and more open questions that we will discern and answer together.

DNSS happens on Sundays, but it might change your mind about what is meant by, "Sunday School".

Join us at 9:00 A.M., just outside our worship space and down the hall.

An Exciting Time to Be Alive

DNSS in 2010 - New time, new place, new topic
DNSS will be taking a two week holiday break (no session on Dec. 27 or Jan. 3) and will be resuming on Sun. Jan. 10. We are trying something a little different for this series, something we call our special "sleeper-in" edition; in other words it will not be in the morning. For eight weeks we will be meeting at Jane and Roger's place, Sundays at 7:00 P.M. If you haven't had a chance to join us because of the time, I encourage you to come and join our conversation. Our topic is called: An exciting time to be Alive (or... How Christianity is Changing and Why)

"This is an exciting time to be alive. The world is changing rapidly, new frontiers are opening up in every area of life, the creative classes in the global world seem primed for a new Renaissance. At every corner—socially, politically, scientifically, economically, religiously—new and intriguing discoveries are being made, and one can hardly keep up with all the ways these discoveries are in the process of affecting everything else.

What we will say about God in the coming years will very much affect how we will live, what kind of people we will become, what kind of world our children will inherit. These are not issues of dinner party debate. They are serious issues, calling us to a place of awe-full responsibility."
Phyllis Tickle
