Why should I join a group?
We learn in rows but grow in circles. Community is critical to our growing process and our faith walk. There are several types of groups at Grace that all share the purpose of connecting people relationally to one another while also studying God's Word. Check out the scale below, click on a group, and determine which type would be a good fit for you!
HOME GROUPS
A place to form connections, relationships, and a sense of belonging centered around living life together in YOUR region, meeting YOUR neighbors and serving YOUR community. There are groups based on geographical location, groups for young adults (18-25 yrs), single parents, empty nesters, and for Spanish speakers.
Discipleship groups meet weekly either on-campus or online with a set discipleship curriculum and the goal of developing believers to become true disciples of Christ. Members learn how to establish a DAILY relationship with Christ, integrate biblical and theological foundations of Christianity into their lives, identify, embrace, and engage their personal mission fields, & begin making disciples of others.
DISCIPLESHIP GROUPS
HOPE GROUPS
It's OK to not be OK. Life can be overwhelming and push us beyond our limits. Even though life is hard, it can be different. If you feel overwhelmed and would like help in your journey toward healing, please seek help before a situation becomes a crisis. It can get better with Christ and community. Hope Groups can be that community for your recovery, finances, marriage, and difficult season of life. Grace Kids Care for children ages 6 weeks through 5th grade is available for on campus participants. Registration is required and space is limited in each group.
BIBLE STUDY GROUPS
Bible Study Groups are on campus groups that are a time to come together to study God's word, encourage each other, and play out practical application of God's truth in our lives. Classes are available on Wednesday mornings during the school year and evenings year round, as well as Saturday mornings.
GRACE BIBLE INSTITUTE
Paul tells us that we are to “Be diligent to present yourself approved to God as a workman who does not need to be ashamed, accurately handling the word of truth” (2 Timothy 2:15). Does this verse inspire you to improve your understanding of the Bible? What does it mean to accurately handle the word of truth?
Grace Bible Institute (GBI) is a 3-year certificate program that uses year-long tracks designed to help you engage the Bible in such a way that it becomes part of your life. Each track is made up of five, eight-week semesters that will be offered at Grace on Tuesday evenings.
MOMLIFE
Mom Life is a unique ministry designed specifically for moms of children from birth through 3rd grade. Its mission is to help mothers connect with other mothers while learning life-changing truths from God’s Word. One meeting is a large group setting where we will hear from other women on topics relevant to our lives. The other meeting is a small group setting where we will be given the time and opportunity to build relationships with Jesus and other women as we lean on one another for support and personal spiritual growth.
Each meeting your child will learn and have fun too! We will love on your child while they learn biblical principles through age-appropriate lessons, crafts, songs, and games. Registration will open July 31 for Fall of 2022.
