Groups are formed to build space and routine in our lives for fellowship and discipleship. Love requires relationships and learning amplified in modeling, mentoring, and doing together. Groups gather at homes, cafes, and in offices at different times throughout the week and on the weekend. We'll help you find a group that works best for you at this season of your life.
Neighbor Groups are for individuals or families of all ages. They meet at homes and practice the second greatest commandment: “love your neighbor.” Groups share meals, discuss the message given at church, pray together, and unite together as they bless neighbors: the people where they live, work, and play.
Men's and Women's Groups gather for deeper connection and discipleship. They are built on a D.N.A. (Discover, Nurture, Act) model. They "discover" truth, "nurture" one another in the daily realities of life, and support each other as they "act" on it.
Care groups gather for a limited time/season and are designed to provide relational support and learnings for people walking through specific life circumstances that require care, teaching, and support. (ie. DivorceCare, Griefshare, Celebrate Recovery).
Complete the group leader interest form. One of our group coordinators will contact you and start the process to launch or lead a group. You'll also be connected with possible co-leaders. We form groups with two leaders partnering together.
Train with our group leaders/coordinators. You'll clarify goals, connect to helpful resources and develop your group leadership and disciple-making skills. What is more, you'll be connected with a team that will pray together and prepare to launch and lead well.
Schedule your first meeting and reach out to existing or potential group members. Group coordinators will help with this and pray for you as you get ready to launch.

Encounters with Jesus - Tim Keller
One of the biggest obstacles for people to accept or believe in Christianity is that they think they know all about it already. After all, hasn’t it been around for thousands of years? Doesn’t everybody know what Christians believe? But if we look at Jesus’ encounters with various men and women during his life, we will find some of our assumptions challenged. These conversations were not about personal sins or specific religious views and practices, nor were they a set of talking points or a political platform. Instead, in these encounters we see him meeting people at the point of their big, unspoken questions: Who are we, and why are we here? Why be a good person; why love instead of hate? What’s wrong with the world—And what, if anything, can make it right?
The Reason for God - Tim Keller
Why does God allow suffering in the world? How could a loving God send people to Hell? Why isn’t Christianity more inclusive? How can one religion be “right” and the others “wrong”? Why have so many wars been fought in the name of God? These are just a few of the questions and doubts even ardent believers wrestle with today.
