Small Groups
God created us to live in community. Do you know where to find this kind of encouragement and love? Right here. We are inspired and challenged in the rows of a pew, but we are transformed in the circle of a small group. This is where “life on life” happens and we are changed from the inside out. Come join us as we encourage and love one another, as God has loved us!
“Let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. Let us not give up meeting together but let us encourage one another. ” (Hebrews 10:24)

Get Out of Your Head
Our greatest spiritual battles are fought in our mind. Our enemy is determined to get in our heads to make us feel helpless, overwhelmed and incapable of making a difference. In “Get Out of Your Head,” Jennie Allen uses the book of Philippians to inspire and equip us to transform our emotions, outlook, and circumstances by taking control of our thoughts.
