Groups

WINTER GROUPS SIGN-UPS ARE OPEN

a variety of groups

We're all looking for something a little different when it comes to being in a group, so we offer two types.

Growth Groups

These groups are long-term (12-24 months) communities designed to help people follow Jesus in every facet of life. Each group will begin with a study called Circle Up. This 4-week study will give practical approaches to building healthy relationships and pursuing spiritual growth so everyone can make the most of their new group. Leaders can decide to use RightNow Media studies, book studies or the previous weekend’s talk discussion guide.

Connection Groups

These groups are short-term (9 weeks) communities designed to help people get to know other people in our church. The nature and subject matter is determined by the group leader or facilitator. But we want to offer helpful and engaging content that gets people experiencing community and later on, considering a Growth Group. They can range from exercise to cooking groups; gaming to study groups.

Activity Groups

At our church, an activity group is all about connecting with others through a shared interest or hobby—whether it’s hiking, sitting around a fire, cooking, or crafting. It’s a chance to spend time doing something you love while building meaningful relationships. But it’s not just about the activity—it’s about creating space for conversations about faith, life, and growth. Activity groups are a fun and natural way to find community and deepen connections with others who share your passions.

Group Schedules

We'll launch new groups every January, May and September. We want to make it easy for everyone to find a small group that best fits their stage of life and current needs. So our aim is to have both a Connection Group and Growth Group for each of the following categories: men, women, married couples, singles and young professionals.

Wanna be a group leader?

We’re so glad you’re considering becoming a Group leader! Around here, we believe that life change happens best in the context of community. Groups are at the heart of what we do as a church because we’re convinced that real growth in our relationship with Jesus happens when we intentionally surround ourselves with others who are pursuing the same goal. These groups create space for meaningful connections, spiritual growth, and the kind of authentic community we all need.
That’s why our Group leaders are so important. They set the tone, foster relationships, and truly help carry out our mission of people helping people find and follow Jesus. Because this role is so vital, we’re intentional about selecting leaders who align with our mission and values.
Take a few minutes to review the information below. It outlines what this role looks like, the qualifications we’re looking for, and the expectations we have for our leaders. If, after prayerful consideration, you feel like this might be a great next step for you, we’d love for you to fill out the application to begin the process.
