SUMMARY:A Contrarian's Guide to Knowing God
DESCRIPTION:The best way to grow in a relationship with Christ is in relationship with others. Our Community Groups are a place where you can connect with others in a learning community; finding Biblical direction for life’s sometimes difficult journey. For more information about Community Groups contact Pastor Blair. \nSometimes what we believe about the Christian life comes from a single but prominent point of view—an older Christian we look up to\, a preacher\, or a parent. But is there only one way of living the life of a Jesus follower? \n\nThe Christian life—even one centered on grace—can still feel like a long list of dos and don’ts. But what if there’s more (and less) to our faith than we typically believe? In this series based on the book A Contrarian’s Guide to Knowing God by Larry Osborne\, we will tackle popular assumptions about Christian living that create stress and failure rather than growth and joy.

SUMMARY:Bad (and Better) Boys of the Bible
DESCRIPTION:The best way to grow in a relationship with Christ is in relationship with others. Our Community Groups are a place where you can connect with others in a learning community; finding Biblical direction for life’s sometimes difficult journey. For more information about Community Groups contact Pastor Blair. \n\nWe often learn more from what not to do vs. what to do. Join us as we explore the lives of Biblical “Bad Boys” and see how all of us fallen humans are susceptible to the same temptations that defined them. We’ll also see how “Better Boys” persevered and sought the Lord in times of trouble.
