Rooted
Rooted is a 10-week small group experience designed to connect you to God, the church, and your purpose. Together, in a group of 10-15 people from all walks of life, you’ll explore the Bible, engage in prayer and serve experiences, share stories, and practice rhythms essential to a healthy spiritual life. Rooted is available 3 times a year, in January, April, and September.
The next session of Rooted kicks off the week of Jan 14

Story of God
Running through Women’s ministry this winter!
January 10 – February 28
During the Story of God, you’ll discover there is no greater hero, no greater conflict, no greater rescue, and no greater ending than what you’ll find in the unfolding story of God.
The Image of God
Led by Ines Franklin and Steve Bang Lee, this course explores the scriptural meaning and application of God’s Image being reflected in every person. From the vulnerable, marginalized, and the unborn, join us as we learn how God’s heart compels us to love and care for the whole of His creation. All weeks will be taught live and also available via a live look-in for online participants.
Theology and The Mission of God
Theology and The Mission of God is a group-discipleship experience designed to lead people out of their comfort zones and into a deeper spiritual maturity through the study and application of core doctrines for the global Church.
Intentional Parenting
January 10 – February 7
No matter how good their intentions, all parents at times resort to quick-fix parenting to try and stop a kid’s negative or annoying behavior. Quick-fix parenting may temporarily ease a parent’s stress level, but it does little to positively impact a child’s future. In this five-week course, we will discover solid biblical principles, which applied over time, actually result in less-stressed parents and happier, better-adjusted, and more successful kids
Emotionally Healthy Spirituality
In this eight-week course, you will directly address the reality that emotional maturity and spiritual maturity are inseparable. It will equip you to develop a personal, first-hand relationship with Jesus by incorporating stillness, silence, and Scripture as daily life rhythms.
Emotionally Healthy Relationships
If you have people in your life, you have relationships and we all need practical tools to actually live out the Bible’s teaching to love well. This nine-week course equips you with 8 practical skills to love others well as mature followers of Jesus.
Join us on Mondays, January 22 – March 18!

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a recommended track or sequence for courses? While there isn’t a specific sequence we do recommend participating in Rooted and our Deep Dive Courses first if you are able as they help lay a solid foundation for all other courses.
Will I be placed in a group at a course or can I attend as an individual? It depends on the Course. While some have group options available you are not required to be in an existing group to join any course!
Can my existing Life Group attend a course together? Absolutely! Courses provide a great opportunity for Life Groups to grow together.
