Life Groups are small weekly gatherings where people who are interested in following Jesus come to make friends and grow in their faith.  The goal is to make disciples who are enjoying and sharing the abundant life of Jesus.

The 5 essential focus areas for Life Groups are:
Bible application | Fellowship | Serving others
Outreach | Prayer

Life Groups typically meet in homes on various days and times of the week, and semesters run between 10-13 weeks.  We encourage our groups to be open, so new people can visit and join any time, but some groups close once the semester begins. As groups flourish and grow larger, they multiply to create new spaces for others to join.
 
Groups can choose to study a variety of topics, based on our 7 Marks of Maturity: Passionate Worship, Resilient Faith, Biblical Hunger, Heart Holiness, Intentional Disciple-Making, Gracious Love, Joyful Service. But new groups normally begin by using the Rooted curriculum.
 
Please check out our list of open groups below, and let us know if you have any questions!

What is Rooted?

Rooted is a 10-week discipleship experience designed to help people connect with God, the Church, and their purpose. Built around seven rhythms found in the life of the early church, Rooted invites participants into a pattern of daily devotion, prayer, serving, sharing their story, and living in community.

Each week, groups explore foundational truths of the Christian faith through guided readings, personal reflection, and meaningful conversations. Rooted also includes three powerful shared experiences — prayer, serving, and breaking strongholds — that help participants move from head knowledge to heart transformation.

Rooted isn’t just another study. It’s a catalyst for spiritual growth, deeper relationships, and renewed purpose. Many churches use Rooted as the on-ramp to small group life because it builds genuine community and helps people take the next step in following Jesus.

Key elements include:
  • Weekly gatherings with a facilitator
  • Daily devotional readings
  • Group discussion and spiritual practices
  • Hands-on serving experience
  • Life-story sharing
  • Celebration at the end of the journey

Rooted helps people:
  • Understand who God is
  • Hear His voice
  • Develop spiritual rhythms
  • Experience community
  • Step into their God-given calling
