There are several different groups meeting so be sure to check out our Growing Together page for more details on each class. There is something for everyone of any age.

Growing Together - Thinking Biblically
Sometimes, life can be difficult, discouraging, and hopeless. We are constantly bombarded with all kinds of claims to truth, but for the believer, there is only one source of truth - God’s Holy Word. Thinking Biblically helps us answer life’s toughest questions, reassures the faith, and shows us how to live as followers of Jesus in this world.
Join us as we open up God’s Word, consider what it says, and think Biblically!
Growing Together - Winter 2025 Semester
Growing Together is our midweek discipleship track for all ages. Each week, we gather into what we call Growth Groups organized by age and stage of life and designed to help everyone grow as followers of Jesus Christ. From preschoolers to senior adults, we want to provide a space to look into God’s word and other helpful yet Biblically sound resources to grow as disciples of Jesus Christ.
Growth Groups meet on Wednesday nights from 6:30 to 7:45 p.m. They are for children, teenagers, and adults.

Thinking Biblically Series - Growing Together
With all that is going on in the world, we as Christians should be in the habit of viewing everything through a Biblical lens. Having a Biblical worldview is foundational to our growth as a disciple of Jesus and how we interact with the culture around us. In this two week gathering of our adult growth groups, we will unpack specific topics ranging from culture, theology and doctrine, to hot topics of the day and see how God’s Word addresses those things so that we can learn to Think Biblically!
All Adult Growth Groups will meet on March 13 and March 20 in the Sanctuary at 6:30 PM. Children and Youth Growth Groups will continue to meet as regularly scheduled.
