Experiencing God in Everyday Life

Experiencing God In Everyday Life

Many of us meet God in a mountaintop moment-a powerful experience with the living God- but then don’t know how to move forward from that place. The reality is, our Christian lives are not lived on the mountaintop but on a daily journey of learning to experience God and follow Jesus, taking part in God’s story as He pursues His eternal purposes in our world.
Some days may require major leaps of faith, but more often, we’ll take small steps of faithfulness in the ordinary moments of our lives.
This study will help you experience God not just on the mountaintops but in all the places in between.

The In-Between is a community for women ages 21-30 who are navigating faith, friendship, relationships, identity and purpose.

You don’t have to have perfect faith.  You don’t have to know all the answers.  You don’t have to have your life together.  Just come.  We’ll talk about Jesus, real life, and what it looks like to follow Him for real — while building friendships with women who are figuring it out alongside you.

Our hope is that no one stays stuck in the in-between.  That we would become women who choose Jesus whole-heartedly, live it out boldly, and bring our people with us.

Hope Beyond Heartache

A place where broken hearts can find hope again.  Losing a child or someone we love changes us forever.  There are no perfect words for the emptiness, the questions, the memories, and the ache that follows us from day to day.  Grief is a journey no one should have to walk alone.

Hope Beyond Heartache is a safe and compassionate place for women who have experienced the loss of a child or a loved one.

Here, you don’t have to pretend you’re okay.  You can talk about there person you miss.  You can share your memories, your tears, your anger, your questions and even the days when simply getting out of bed feels like an accomplishment.  We will listen without judgement because we understand that grief looks different for everyone.

This group isn’t about forgetting.  We never forget the ones we love.  It’s about learning how to carry their memory while slowly discovering that there can still be moments of peace, love, purpose, and even joy in our lives.

There is hope beyond the heartache.  There is love beyond the loss.  And there is a community here that understands.

Hands & Feet

Be the hands and feet of Jesus by meeting practical needs within our church family and community.   This Life Group is for people who want to help when they’re able—whether it’s providing a meal, helping with yard work, running an errand, offering a ride, assisting with a small home project, or responding to other practical needs.

 Requests will be shared through the group’s messages, and members can choose whether they’re available to help. There is never any obligation or expectation to respond to every need. We’ll begin with a kickoff gathering to get acquainted, discuss how the group will function, and then determine together whether occasional quarterly gatherings would be beneficial.

A friend is always loyal, and a brother is born to help in time of need.  Proverbs 17:17 NLT

Authentic Manhood

This men’s group has guys from all walks of life and welcomes men no matter where they are at in their walk with Jesus. It’s a warm, friendly gathering. We don’t only have fellowship together, but we are also seeking to do the things that strengthen our relationship with our Savior. We’re doing Authentic Manhood from 33 The Series which is a multi-volume video series that gives men a vision for manhood as modeled by Jesus in his 33 years on earth.  Become who you were created to be!

Our Sisterhood Era

Hello ladies, prepare to be in your SISTERHOOD ERA!!! Being a young woman in this era (high school & college) is a challenge that should not be faced alone! I will be leading a Sisterhood Group for women in their early-twenties. My goal for this group is for young women to develop a strong relationship with Jesus. Discuss topics like: body image, anxiety, and sisterhood just to name a few 😉. Sisterhood might sound familiar, right? First Church for the past couple years has hosted Sisterhood events in order to bring women of the community together and hear a biblical message that pertains to their life! My wish is that many young women will walk away with lasting friendships built on the foundation of Jesus!

✨I hope you’re as excited about this group as I am! The definition of “sisterhood” is as follows: a relationship between sisters, or a community of women linked by a common interest. Our interest: “Jesus” . I want this group to be a ✨SISTERHOOD✨, not just because that is our title. I want you to get more than just deep discussions out of this group, but find a community where you can lean on Jesus together now and lead others in the future to Jesus!

Best,

Kaitlyn💕

Community: Couples + Kids

Hey there, welcome to Community:  Couples + Kids!

Our goal is simple:  to build genuine relationships with one another while creating a place where anyone — whether you’ve been following Jesus for years or you’re just curious — can feel comfortable, connected, and welcomed.

We meet every other Monday.  The evening begins with a fun, Bible-based lesson for the kids, geared primarily toward elementary-aged children.  Afterwards, the adults gather for a discussion based on a RightNow Media video series, focusing on practical topics that help us grow in our faith, marriages, families, and everyday lives.

If you’re looking for a group that’s real, welcoming, and family-friendly, we’d love for you to join us.

No one’s perfect.  Everyone’s welcome.

The Table

Throughout our marriage, we’ve realized that one of the greatest tools for building a strong, Godly marriage is having other couples to walk alongside you who are in the same season, and pursuing Jesus together.  The Table is a place for married couples to grow closer in your marriage, grow closer to Jesus, and have fun together.

We share a meal, play games, and dive into a devotional.  Our hope is that The Table becomes a place where couples feel encouraged, connected, and reminded that they don’t have to do marriage alone.

Welcome!  We try to focus our group on biblical ways to become a more Godly man, and how we can become better providers and leaders for our families and others around us.  The word “Forged” comes from Proverbs 27:17 — “As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend”.  Our average night usually consists of sharing a meal, then watching a video series from RightNow Media.  We then have a discussion about the topics that were covered in the video.  Our group is mainly outdoorsy young men ages 25-35, but we do have some members much younger and older.  Unfortunately we do not currently have any form of childcare.  Thank you for taking a look at our group.  We are always welcoming and thankful for new members.
