Fall Kickoff: Small Group Sunday – August 24
We’re launching a new season of groups, and it all begins on Small Group Sunday. Come meet group leaders in the lobby, ask questions, and find the right group for your season of life. You don’t have to do life alone.
Groups meet throughout the week in homes and around the community.
There’s a group for every age, stage, and walk of life.
Find Your People. Grow Your Faith!
Small Groups are where big transformation happens—through friendship, prayer, conversation, and doing life together. Whether you’re newly married, raising kids, navigating singleness, or adjusting to an empty nest, there’s a group for you.
Life is better together, and small groups are where that happens.
Whether you’re looking for meaningful friendships, spiritual growth, or just a place to belong, there’s a group that’s just right for you.
What kind of groups are there?
We offer groups for:
- Men
- Women
- Everyone (Couples or mixed life stages)
Within these groups, you’ll find everything from young marrieds and growing families to empty nesters and seasoned saints—plus everything in between. No matter your life stage or faith journey, there’s a space for you.
How does it work?
When you click Join a Group, you’ll fill out a quick form. Then one of our Small Group Pastors will personally follow up with a conversation to get to know you, hear what you’re looking for, and help you find the best fit. We’ll walk with you every step of the way.
Small Group FAQ's
Small Groups meet weekly in homes or other locations around town. Each group has a leader and an apprentice who lead the group through a biblically-based discussion. Groups vary in size but are common in purpose. They exist to help people experience a meaningful relationship with God and others. You can expect a warm, welcoming environment, great conversation, and the opportunity to grow spiritually.
Every group is different. We want to help you get connected to the right one, so make sure to let us know if you would like to join a group with childcare. Some of our groups split the costs for a babysitter, some don’t offer any type of childcare, and some make other arrangements.
Groups primarily meet in homes. We can help you find a group near you. Every group chooses its own day and time to meet. Browsing through the online listing, you’ll see those details for every group.
There is no set amount of time to stay in a small group. The goal is experiencing meaningful relationship with God and others. As people within each group do grow and mature spiritually, we encourage them to step out and lead a new group. We call this ‘branching.’ Branching is highly encouraged and celebrated in our groups. Doing so makes room for more people to get in a group. It’s also a great way to live out The Great Commission (Matt. 28:18-20)
Small groups aren’t bible studies. However, the bible is integral in the group experience. Curriculum is provided for each group.
