Fall Core Seminars
Core Seminars are your place to get trained and equipped for life and service, inside and outside the church. Each semester we offer a variety of seminars. These courses are geared to equip you in areas of spiritual growth, theology, and bible study as well as specific Christian lving topics like parenting and marriage. For this semester, we have two seminars:
We say love you Lord, He says love you more (Women’s Study)
Throughout scripture, Biblical authors have described God. For example, David describes Him as a shepherd, John as the light of the world. Joshua describes him as holy and jealous, and Peter as a cornerstone. But how does God intimately describe himself? What characteristics does he want us to know about Him. Join us as we are encouraged and reassured of His unconditional love for us.
What: Love you more!
When: Sundays at 9AM. (Starts August 21st)
Where: We will contact with you room number when you sign up.
Who: Becki Grindell.

Community Groups
The Christian life is better with others. Just as your fitness goals are better achieved with the support of others, so your spiritual goals are better achieved with support of other Christians. You were not meant to go it alone.
As we head towards the fall, registration for Community Groups is now live! These groups provide a smaller setting where you can go beyond chitchat and really get to know and be known by others.
