The groups listed below meet in the church facility. This is a great way for those who are currently not part of a group to try something out and get connected. Many of our groups use RightNow Media resources in their study of the Scriptures to facilitate group discussion.
Over the last few decades, we have experienced a profound post-Christian cultural shift in the USA and Canada. As a result, millions of people will not step foot into a church today. This is not just a trend or statistics… these are our brothers, sisters, sons, daughters, friends, and co-workers.
In this 10-week series you will learn how to build trust and friendships with secular people, respond effectively to hot topics when sharing the Gospel, and articulately explain your faith with those least likely to respond.

Room 104
God can seem distant when dreams fade, people die, or careers fail. It may feel like He slammed the door in your face and walked out for good. No one knows the feeling of abandonment more than Ruth and Naomi. Their story begins with the worst—death, famine, and poverty. And God remains silent.
But the book of Ruth doesn’t end with despair. The story brims with hope because God works on behalf of the two widows in ways they least expect. In this 7-part series, Bianca Juárez, speaker and author of Play with Fire, teaches through Ruth to show how God moves behind the scenes in our lives. On the surface, this book tells the story of two widows and a kind landowner. Even more, it teaches us about God’s faithfulness, love, and providence.
Walk the journey of Ruth, Naomi, and Boaz and discover the devoted love of God and His transformative power in our lives.

Room 200
We live in a chaotic world, riddled with anxiety and isolation. We are more distracted and disconnected from God and others than ever before. It can be so easy to forget that we, as believers in Jesus Christ, were made for a moment like this.
It is time that we remember who we are and whose we are. It is time we take hold of the One who is our peace so that we can cultivate peace in the world around us. We are not alone and were created for communion with the living God. He is accessible and near through powerful and practical prayer, worship, study, service and evangelism.
By communing with God, we are not only able to have peace but be bearers of that peace to the world around us. We were created for communion. It is time to rekindle, or even spark for the first time, practical living with Christ through the spiritual disciplines, and in turn multiply and cultivate the Kingdom of God in the world around us, sowing peace and so much more.

Hub 1
The concept of inheritance isn’t just a subject in Scripture, it is a theme stretching all the way from Genesis to Revelation. This teaching by author Beth Moore is based on Psalm 16:5-6 (ESV). "The lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; indeed, I have a beautiful inheritance."
