ENCOURAGING & EQUIPPING FAMILIES
TO MAKE JESUS THEIR ALL
AND SHARE HIM WITH ALL

DISCIPLESHIP FOR MOM & DAD

Sunday Mornings

GroupLife connects couples and parents who learn to follow, love each other, and live on mission as disciples of Jesus. Families classes are grouped by family life-stages such as married without kids; single parents; parents of preschoolers, kids, and youth; and groups preferring multi-generational connections.

Journey Groups

Moms and Dads are encouraged to pursue an essential, intimate, and abiding relationship with Jesus. Journey Groups are small, same-gender groups that walk together through a 9-month process called “The Journey,” laying an essential foundation for a lifetime of following Jesus and multiplying kingdom impact.

CARE FOR FAMILIES

COUNSELING SERVICES

God expects us to need help. He has not called us to live in isolation without helpers. That’s why He’s provided many helpers for His children in the church and faith community. You and your family matter to God. Our church encourages and fully supports you seeking the help you need.

THE INTAKE PROCESS: Laura Bauer, LCSW is a local counselor by vocation and serves as our church’s Living Well Ministries Associate. Her role is to direct our Re:generation recovery ministry as well as provide counseling intake services. When you inquire about counseling, she meets with you first to understand the nature of your need then connects you with counselors and services in our church and/or community that can best meet your need.

Schedule your intake session

*If you or someone you know is in (or has put others in) imminent danger, please call 911.

MIDWEEK | WEDNESDAYS @ 6 pm
Spring & Fall Semesters

Midweek Studies

Every Spring and Fall semester, MidWeek groups meet to address a life stage issue or an area of needed growth. A marriage and parenting course is offered for the Fall of 2025. MidWeek classes include men’s, women’s, and other studies that further one’s life journey with Jesus.

FALL 2025 MIDWEEK MARRIAGE COURSE

6:00 – 7:30 pm | Making Jesus Your All in Marriage | David Booth, Discipleship & Families Pastor

Room 271 Using Paul Tripp’s Marriage: 6 Gospel Commitments Every Couples Needs to Make as a primary source, this group will explore how “making Jesus your all” is the blueprint for growing a healthy, sturdy, and satisfying marriage. Cost for the semester is $10 (per book).

6:00 – 7:30 pm (Aug 27-Oct 8) | Birds & Bees Takes Flight | Chelsye Rich, Preschool Director

Room 275B Do you feel awkward, uncomfortable or nervous to talk to your child about their body or where babies come from, or maybe you just don’t even know when or how to begin these conversations. The Birds & Bees curriculum is meant to equip you, the parent of a preschooler or young elementary-age child, with the tools you need to create a plan and have confident conversations with your child about how God made them. Plan to join us this fall semester as we walk through the Birds & Bees Takes Flight curriculum.
