Catalyst 101: Heart, Community, World
Class Information
Catalyst 101 is an eight-week class that takes place each fall from September through November. It's led by our Pastoral team and is designed for those, who are new to our church, to grow in community and discuss the gospel and how it's lived out in all of life. Furthermore, this class has also been the catalyst for new Community Groups; so if you're not currently in a CG, this is a great way to plug in and then consider joining a CG when the class wraps.
By participating in Catalyst 101, you will:
- Meet others in the Redeemer LSQ community and get to know our pastors
- Engage with Redeemer’s theology of ministry
- Innovate ways to serve your neighbors in New York City
The next Catalyst 101 class begins on Monday, Sep 27, 2021. It will take place at W83 Ministry Center, and it's $10/person. Scholarships are available.

Catalyst 501: Understanding Our Culture
Class Information
Catalyst 501 is a new, eight-week class led by Pastor Michael, exploring the cultural narratives of our society (ex: identity, freedom, happiness and power). These storylines and themes are propagated in culture as simple truths. They are deeply influential cultural values, images, and symbols that give people their understanding of themselves and reality. They are not actual arguments but rather deeply held assumptions, taken-for-granted givens, “just the way things are." We hope you'll join us as we use God's Word to guide us during our times together.
The first iteration of this class began on Monday, April 5, 2021. When the class is offered again, we'll update details here.
