LifeGroup Description and Rationale: We are not just a church that offers small groups; we are a church comprised of small groups. We believe that growing in our relationship with Christ and meaningful relationships with others is critical if we are to experience life transformation and positively impact the world around us. That is why we meet regularly in small LifeGroups that assist and challenge us in this process.
A LifeGroup is a group of people meeting together weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly for a 12-week quarter to pursue a common interest and to develop authentic, supportive friendships. Several groups are ongoing and meet year round.
A variety of new LifeGroups are offered during the fall and spring quarters. Some concentrate on developing spiritually or intellectually through Bible studies, book discussions, or prayer. Others are centered around outreach, service, or social activities. Specific groups offer emotional growth and the chance to give and receive support when we're struggling or hurting. Some groups teach practical skills for developing joyous, healthy marriages and families, while others support victorious addiction-free living. During the winter we do not offer this variety of different groups because all of the groups are involved in a unified church focus on a topic or book of the Bible. Find a group that suits your interests and needs. You'll be glad you did.
