SMALL GROUPS

Be known. Grow.

Small groups are exactly what they sound like: small gatherings that help us get to know each other and learn to look like Christ together. This is where we grow. This is where we become known. Small groups are the greatest catalyst for living a life with Christ at the center.

You're invited.

HAVE AN IDEA FOR A GROUP?

START HERE

Tuesdays @ 6:30pm starting 2/7
Led by Harlan Barnett
Location: Vineyard Church (Conference Room)

This group is an introduction to life in God's Kingdom, and is the first course in our Core Discipleship Series. Using the book Start Here: Kingdom Essentials for Christians (Williams, 2006) as a guide, we will explore the benefits and implications of salvation in this life. This group will be beneficial for anyone new to God's Kingdom, or anyone looking to brush up on the basics of Kingdom life. All materials provided.

LIFE IN THE SPIRIT

Wednesdays @ 6pm from 2/8-4/5
Led by Jenna Greenwell
Location: Vineyard Church

This eight week course is the second in our Core Discipleship Series, and addresses the “how” of having a vibrant relationship with Jesus. How do I hear God? How do I know what God is doing with me and those around me? How does God transform me? After this course, participants will have the tools and the knowledge to walk with Jesus through all seasons of life.

REGISTRATION CLOSED

DOING THE STUFF

Led by Adam Greenwell

Leaving religion behind, Jesus calls his followers to do the stuff that he did in the places they were called. Because we have the story of God in our lives, the gifts of the Holy Spirit, and the people placed in our lives, we are equipped to do the stuff Jesus did! This group will explore calling, giftings, power evangelism, and partnering with the Holy Spirit to bring Good News to the poor, proclaim that captives will be released, that the blind will see, that the oppressed will be set free, and that the time of the Lord's favor has come!
