Luke: Gut-Level Compassion

Women's Group

Led by Lynn Kerr

Tuesday @ 6:30 PM

Many of us believe that we aren't good enough to meet other people's expectations.  Maybe you can't wrap words around why, but lurking beneath the surface of carefully curated facade you present in public, it's there.  Being missed and marginalized by others moves us to assume we're not quite good enough for God either.  The great news woven throughout the Gospel, according to Luke, is that perfection is not a prerequisite for a deep and personal relationship with Jesus.  In fact, this riveting account reveals that Jesus is especially fond of ragamuffins in need of a safe place to learn in and linger.

The House That Jesus Built

Led by Jim Kerr

Tuesday @ 6:30 PM

Each week we will dive into one of ten key New Testament words.  These ten liberating and powerful truths will be spread out in this group.  The realities of New Testament living will begin to dawn on the hearts of God's children--one word at a time.  In Christ, we can walk in love, joy, peace of mind, power, victory, deliverance, and prosperity.

Don't Give The Enemy A Seat At Your Table

Led by Jared Madsen

Wednesday @ 6:00 PM

This video study is based on the book by Louie Giglio.  We will focus around Psalm 23 to offer insight on how to overcome the enemy's lies and how to find peace and spiritual security in all circumstances/situations.  God has prepared a table for us, but Satan is constantly looking for an invitation, seeking to fill our minds with distractions, fear, worry, insecurity, anxiety, temptation, doubt...it's ongoing.  But we can learn how to protect your mind from unhealthy thoughts and experience rest and nourishment at God's table.

In season three, Jesus and His Apostles feel the stress fo their growing ministry, face greater resistance from Jewish and Roman authorities, and deal with greater conflict between themselves, all threatening to undermine Jesus' ministry.  The show introduces characters from the Bible who have relatable problems and struggles, or it gives a new problem to an existing character.  The character then struggles to present that need to Jesus, and one they eventually do, Jesus restores and comforts them physically and emotionally.

STEPS: Gospel-Centered Recovery 

(Formerly Compassionate Recovery)

Led by Dennis Hutchinson

Thursday @ 6:00 PM

Most people hear the word recovery and think of major addictions.  But we all wrestle with something: anger, gossip, greed, and more.  To embrace the freedom found only in Christ, we must get to the root of sin and suffering.  Building on the incomplete truths of traditional recovery programs.  STEPS helps disciples see these truths through the light of Scripture and a personal relationship with Jesus.

Words of Affirmation

Led by Rachel Anderson

Thursday @ 6:00 PM

Using God's words in scripture, we will look at affirming words that we'd like to have spoken to us, and in turn, use those words with others.  Jesus clearly tells us how he feels about us, and the names He has for us.  We will look at those scriptures to change our own mindsets which could cause family/friends to take notice.  By the end of the small group, will be striving to remove harmful one-liners and hurtful innuendos.  The goal will be to delightfully affirm others, even if it isn't done by them in return.  Affirmation has to start with someone!
