Small Groups
Our Small Groups are designed to be missional, transformational, and relational. They change us, help us grow, and get us to go out and do good in the world.
In Matthew 18:20 Jesus says, For where two or three are gathered in my name, I am there among them.
Questions & Information
Small Groups typically consist of 8-12 people who commit to dig deeper into their faith and their faith journeys together as a group. How did you hear about these Small Groups? Please let us know!

Love Biblical Style: Exploring the Bible’s Life-Giving Relationships
Scripture tells us that “God is Love” (1 John 4:16) but what does love in the Bible look like? This series focuses on three different ways we discover love in the Bible and experience it in our own lives: love in our families, love between friends, and love of God. Creative, engaging classes will combine PowerPoint images and close textual study along with shared conversation. How can the Bible help us to recognize, appreciate, and cherish love in its many forms? Led by Dr. Julie Faith Parker.
Meets Online via Zoom Thursdays, April 16-30 from 12:00 to 1:00pm.
The Art of Forgiving: When You Need to Forgive and Don’t Know How
