What is a connect Group?
Connect Groups help you become a True Disciple of Jesus Christ — living out gospel community through shared rhythms rooted in God's Word. Connect Groups are volunteer-led and meet throughout the week
Connect Group Rhythms
- DISCUSSION — digging into God's Word together, tied to the weekend sermon.
- ACCOUNTABILITY — walking with each other through real life to become True Disciples.
- FAMILY TIME — building relationships that go beyond a weekly meeting.
- SERVING — living out faith together, not just talking about it.
What is an intensive Connect Group?
We believe the local church should be the primary place where God's people are formed and equipped. Intensive Connect Groups exist to help you go deep on topics that matter for your walk with Jesus taught by leaders with real training and experience in those areas.
Whereas standard Connect Groups center on community and living on mission, Intensives step outside of those regular rhythms for a season of focused equipping before you return to a standard Connect Group.
Right now, we're offering four Intensive Connect Groups, featured below.
If you're interested in more information about joining an Intensive Connect Group, please fill out the interest form.

Theology Intensive
Knowing God is what fuels our worship. This Intensive is built on that conviction: "affection over information."
This connect group is intended to help every follower of Jesus, regardless of their current level of biblical depth, to grow in affection for God through the study of systematic theology. Taking the approach of what the Bible says as a whole on a given topic, this will help Christians better know God and further their enjoyment of the Word of God.

Biblical worldview intensive
It doesn't matter what we believe if we don't know how to engage the world with it. This Intensive is built to help you apply the gospel to the issues shaping conversations in your workplace, your neighborhood, and your own family.
Over the course of the year, you'll read and discuss material on topics like sexual identity, the sanctity of life, race, mental health, and more. This isn't a lecture. It's a group built to engage these conversations with both conviction and empathy so that we can meet people where they're at to help them take one step closer to becoming a True Disciple of Jesus.

Family discipleship intensive
Parenting is about more than raising good kids — it's about raising lifelong disciples of Jesus. This Intensive equips parents to become the primary disciple-makers in their own homes through biblical teaching, trusted resources, honest discussion, and hands-on application.
There are no perfect parents here, we're all in process together.
Through this group you'll be challenged to practice being a True Disciple in the context of parenting. Then, discover what it looks like to intentionally invest in your children as you navigate many of the questions and struggles parents face in the world today.

Newlywed intensive
A new marriage is possibly the most significant transition any person will face in life. It's important to lay a solid foundation in the first years of marriage that you can spend the rest of your life building upon.
Marriage can be tough — but many of us face very similar struggles. So, the question becomes, "What is the Lord trying to teach us through those universal struggles?" The key is that God designed marriage to make us holy, not just to make us happy.
Over the course of the year, we'll dive deep into God's design and how we're all called to be True Disciples in the context of marriage. We'll also take a deep dive into many of the topics necessary for a successful marriage like communication & conflict, finances, intimacy, etc. In this group, we share real struggles as we seek to learn and apply God's plan for marriage.
