Advent Family Group
(child friendly)

Sundays at 6:30pm  - begins Nov. 2
led by Pastor Ben Emmons
Who exactly is Jesus? What kind of God would come to earth as a human? As Christmas approaches, the season of Advent offers us a chance to reflect on our savior, his purpose, and the surprising ways he invited people near to him. Join pastor Derwin Gray in this five-session Advent study as he unveils King Jesus—the God-man who defied expectations, the king of all creation who humbled himself to serve and die, the friend to sinners who wants to lift us up.

Women's Bible Study

Tuesdays 6:30pm
Begins November 4th
Countless Christians are struggling with the never-ending chaos consuming our world. To find a way out of the overwhelm, we turn to our phones, social media, politics, and a million other little things, desperate for relief. But over time, these imposters leave us weak, weary, and starving. Now more than ever is the perfect time to examine what we are feeding our souls so that we can receive the sustenance we need.

In this six-session Bible study companion to the book Starved, popular author and teacher Amy Seiffert helps readers sweep out their spiritual pantry and replace those old ingredients with new biblical principles that will provide healthy change in real, lasting ways.

Women's Bible Study

Wednesdays  at 10:00am 
Begins November 5th
The book of Proverbs describes godly wisdom as a path that leads to life and flourishing. It also warns of the folly of worldly wisdom as a path that leads to the grave. Every day we face the choice between the true riches of God’s instruction or the fool’s gold of earthly pleasures and pursuits. How often do we call to mind the wisdom found in the sayings of Proverbs to shed light on the path before us? How relevant do we even believe these ancient words are to our modern world?    
In The Way of Wisdom - Bible Study Book with Video Access, Bible teachers Jen Wilkin, Ruth Chou Simons, Kelly Minter, Adrienne Camp, Elizabeth Woodson, and Courtney Doctor invite you to place your feet firmly on the path of life revealed in the book of Proverbs. As you consider wisdom principles on everyday topics like words, work, friendship, marriage, parenting, neighborliness, money management, leadership influence, and more, you’ll discover the wisdom of Proverbs as an invitation to steadily walk God’s way in God’s world.

Led by Jay & Hannah Ginther

Care Groups

Care groups are ongoing gatherings for fellowship, Bible study, and prayer.

These are an expression of, as Paul describes in the book of Ephesians, the Body of Christ building itself up in love by that which every joint supplies.
