Live the Way of Jesus.

Our journey with Christ is more than just a gathering on Sundays — it is a lifelong pursuit that gets nurtured and lived out in a Christ-centered community. We all need a community where we are known, loved, cared for, pursued, encouraged, and challenged to be more like Christ. We believe building that kind of community requires each one of us embrace five group values:

Be Present

To be present means that we commit to making our small group a priority. We allow margin in our schedules, other commitments, and our emotional margin to be fully present as part of a group throughout the week.

Welcome the Stranger

Jesus offered an invitation to all seeking Him (John 1:39). The Gospel is inclusive, not exclusive. We welcome others to see Jesus for themselves and invite them to be part of our family.

Embrace Weakness

We don’t follow a Jesus who had a neat and tidy life, but a crucified Jesus. As His followers, we embrace our weakness, surrender our pain and our struggles, and express our fullest emotions. We welcome vulnerability and invite others into our lives.

Practice the Way of Jesus

As disciples of Jesus, we make being with Jesus, becoming like Jesus, and living out His mission of restoration a way of life. Together we are learning how to practice the Way of Jesus.

Love One Another

Jesus said the world would know His followers by their love for one another (John 17:20-23). That’s why groups should be about sharing our lives with one another, seeking to know one another’s stories, and praying for each other.

Wherever you are in your relationship with God, no matter what you have done, what you are going through, or how much you know about the Bible, we invite you to join us as we seek to live the way of Jesus together. Check out our various group types below!

COMMUNITY GROUPS

Community Groups gather weekly for dinner, bible study and prayer. Whether you’re new to faith or a mature follower of Jesus, groups are designed to meet you where you are.

Community Groups use a method that helps everyone learn to study and apply the bible for themselves. Groups also strive to be an environment where you can invite others to come and see Jesus for themselves.

Group Types: Women, Men, Young Adults, Married Couples, Parents, Intergenerational

Group Size: 10-16 people

Group Openings: Always open; new groups multiply when groups grow too large.

Frequency: Weekly

Study Material: One book of the Bible at a time, using the communal discovery method
