General Growth Groups
Wednesdays @ 12:00 pm - Beginning April 29th - General Population, 18 & Over - Failure, rejection, sickness, losing a loved one, being alone—the fears we carry are many and heavy. Fear can be a tyrant, a bully we can't hide from. It can paralyze our spirit, damage our relationships, and hinder our faith. In this group, we will walk through Scriptures that show God's love and strength when we are afraid and His faithfulness in times of trouble. Whatever your fear, you will realize you are not alone, nor are you without hope. You do not have to purchase the book. You may download the handouts for free.
Thursdays @ 7:00 pm - Beginning April 30th - General Population, 18 & Over - God loves comebacks. No matter how difficult or trying circumstances maybe, God is in the business of reversing the irreversible to make His name known. In this group, we will journey through the Bible to study examples of comebacks as well as the principles God prescribes for our lives as we wait on Him. Regardless of your situation, God is near and working for His glory and for your good.
Young Adult Growth Groups
Tuesdays @ 6:45 pm - Beginning April 28th - Adult Men - This group seeks to provide men with the basis of how to live as wholehearted men, following Jesus' will for their lives. Come and discover your true identity as a Son of God.
Tuesdays @ 7:00 pm - Beginning April 28th - Adult Women - A kingdom woman gives the devil as much reason to fear as a kingdom man. She lives confidently in the knowledge that Christ died and rose for her so that she can experience the significance of the destiny to which she has been called. In this group, we will remind women of their calling from God to be free, delivered, healed, and hopeful.
Youth Growth Groups
Mondays @ 6:45 pm - Beginning May 4th - Parents of Youth in Grades K-5 - Too much of today's Christian parenting is based on fear: fear of the world; fear of America's liberal culture; fear of other parents' and the church's opinions. Grace based parenting, on the other hand, relies on God's love, replicates His forgiveness and commitment to His children, and displaces fear as a motivator for every behavior.
Wednesdays @ 6:45 pm - Beginning April 29th - Youth, Grades 6-12 - These are uncertain times we are living in. This group will help youth wrestle with the current COVID-19 pandemic and other uncertain times.
Population Specific Growth Groups
Thursdays @ 6:45 pm - Beginning April 30th - Married Couples, All Ages - Why do we negatively react to each other in marriage? How do I best motivate my spouse? What if my spouse does not respond to me? This group will work to bring new hope and new life to your marriage.
Wednesdays @ 6:45 pm - Beginning April 29th - Women, All Ages - If you're like most women, you have been trying to hang on tight so you can get your life right. In this group, we will explore scriptural truths to guide you in living a life of surrender to God. This isn't a journey to "doing less"; it's about becoming more of who God has truly created you to be.

Wednesdays @ 7:00 pm - Beginning April 29th - Musicians, Singers, Worship Arts Members, All Ages - This group will explore what it looks like for God to rule our lives. Though a life sold out for Christ might look backward to everyone else, it actually points us back to how God intended our lives to be when he first created us. When God is king, he reverses the curse and flips everything we know on its head. We simply have to choose to follow his lead.
