Sunday Small Groups

9:00 AM

Family is one of the greatest gifts God gives us and one of the greatest influences in our lives. Spouses influence one another, parents are responsible for caring, growing, and discipling their children, and children are responsible to their parents. Those relationships can be the happiest relationships we have, and sometimes the most challenging relationships of our lives. Join us as we walk through what it means to grow spiritually as individuals, as parents, and to guide our children towards God.

Leaders: Clayton & Kelly Peeples
Adult Center, First Floor

A group for the 18-24 year-olds in our community who have graduated high school and have begun their college career or opted to jump straight into the job market.  A group for honest discussion around the issues facing students today through the biblical framework that permeates the authentic Christian life. 

Leaders: Jason & Leslie Gordon
Adult Center, Second Floor

The foundational issue of our lives is our relationship to God. We want to make sure that who we are is who God desires us to be. To do that we need to be anchored in His Word. We are a small group that wants to grow up around the Word of God, in fellowship and community with one another, and to be looking towards what God has called us to be.

Leader: Jim Dawkins
Adult Center, Second Floor

When we are saved we are called to be disciples of Jesus who are making disciples of others. Making disciples can sound like a daunting task, but through reading God’s Word verse by verse we see the places in our lives where we can be better disciples and where we can disciple others. God changes us by beginning on the inside of who we are and allows that to change who we are on the outside. He changes our priorities so that we value God first, others second, and ourselves last. Join us as we discover what Christ is making in us.

Leaders: Chris & Stephanie Chambers
Adult Center, First Floor

One of the challenges that we all face is the way the world we live in influences and impacts what we think, believe, and how we live. Our goal is to challenge how our world tries to influence us by gathering together to study God’s word, pray for one another, live life together, and support one another as we overcome the challenges of our lives. As we share our lives together we dig deeper into the hope that only Christ can give.

Leaders: Harry & Cherie Downing
Adult Center, Second Floor 

At one of the most pivotal moments in our lives, when we are making decisions about who we are going to be, how we are going to follow God in our vocational lives, what we are going to commit ourselves to, and how we are going to make God our biggest priority, who we surround ourselves couldn’t be more critical.  In this group, we are exploring what God is doing in our lives today and how that will impact our lives and the people around us in the future. Our goal is not to sit but to encourage and equip one another to be positive agents for change in our communities.

Leaders: Ralph & Anne Brown
Adult Center, Second Floor

10:30 AM

We want to gather together to have an interactive Bible study, as we walk alongside the biblical characters in the Old Testament looking at their lives, how the trials they faced grew their faith in God’s movement, and how we can start to apply that same kind of faith in our lives. We will journey together through the text and work through various issues as we learn together.

Leaders: Janis Hatcher
Adult Center, First Floor

The main purpose of our life group is to help lead people into a deeper Biblical understanding and to live a purposeful obedient life that will honor Jesus Christ and build up each other. To rejoice when they rejoice and to comfort when times get rough. We have a very discussion-style class. Everyone is strongly encouraged to voice their opinions. We believe that interaction will make the teaching of Christ ‘stick’ better and will help build a more ‘family type’ of connection than merely preaching. Our goal is to keep things interesting, relevant to everyday life, and Biblically sound.

Leaders: Stan & Gail Barnes
Adult Center, Second Floor

A Life Group of senior adults who actively serve the church in a variety of ways. Our primary goal is to connect with one another in community and allow our Bible study to change our hearts and minds.

We want our shared life to spill over into all of the connections we make in our faith journey.

Leader: Wayne & Phyllis Collins

A place where senior adults can connect in a traditional atmosphere of Bible study and fellowship. This life group is a steady connection to the greatest parts of our Baptist traditions while still seeking to impact the life of our church today. There is a great need for senior adults to connect with one another and impact the culture of our families, our friendships, and our communities. Here we learn how God has been shaping and preparing us to continually be an active part of our community of faith.

Leader: Jerry Bauman & Dick Beaudoin

Lives are changed by interactions with God’s Word. This is a time when we can dig deeply into the Word of God by working through it one verse at a time. The in-depth Bible Study allows us to see who God has revealed Himself to be, and how he wants us to live in light of His presence among us.

Leader: Elaine Wooten
Adult Center, First Floor

The Way of Wisdom, A Study of the Book of Proverbs
The book of Proverbs describes godly wisdom as a path that leads to life and flourishing. It also warns of the folly of worldly wisdom as a path that leads to the grave. Every day we face the choice between the true riches of God’s instruction or the fool’s gold of earthly pleasures and pursuits. How often do we call to mind the wisdom found in the sayings of Proverbs to shed light on the path before us? How relevant do we even believe these ancient words are to our modern world?

Satan is not out to get you to follow him; he’s out to get you to ignore him. When we spiritually zone out, doze off, fall asleep, we are forgetting that we are in the middle of a war–and Satan loves it this way! He loves to convince people he doesn’t exist.  But Satan is real. He is an actual enemy of our souls. He is waging a real war against us. And we need to wake up and get in the fight. If we fail to do this, we do so at our own peril.

WEDNESDAYS

Philippians: A Study about Faith, Love, and Joy
Philippians is one of the most positive, joy-filled books in the Bible. Yet, it was written by a person who had every reason not be positive and to not to experience joy. How is that possible, and can it be true for us as well? That is only one of the wonderful life truths we will learn in our study of Philippians.

Leader: Pastor Jerry Waugh
