connect groups
what are connect groups?
Connect Groups are intentionally designed to cultivate spiritual community through regular times of relational connection, engagement with God’s Word, and prayer together. These are the major components of most Connect Groups, but the context in which they happen can vary as leaders create and shape their own unique gatherings. Ultimately, Connect Groups provide a place for people to find freedom in Christ and build community with each other.
upcoming season
summer season runs from june 1 - july 26. While some groups are already available for registration, all open groups will listed by may 18.
Connect Groups are organized around a seasonal schedule consisting of three trimesters. The fall and spring trimesters are both 13 weeks, and the summer trimester is slightly abbreviated at 8 weeks.
lead a connect group
You don’t have to have it all together to lead a Connect Group–you just need to be willing to let God use you. If you are interested in leading a Connect Group, we'd love to talk about it with you!

You were meant to live a fulfilled life, driven by purpose and passion
In our world, it's difficult to know what it means to be a strong man. From external pressures that seek to define who we are to the internal struggle to live with consistency, clarity, and conviction, every man confronts relentless resistance as he strives to live out his God-given destiny.
This battle for our destiny is not won from the outside but from within--from the heart, the epicenter of everything men are called and created to be.
In this book, David and Brandon Lindell show you how to shift from operating from a place of uncertainty to actively creating the future you desire, and how to conquer the challenges that threaten to hold you back.
God calls us to more. It's time to stop living defeated, discouraged, dejected, and disheartened and harness the power God has already given you to live focused, fulfilled, and fearless. This guide will get you there!
You were meant to live lionhearted.

Dylan | Men's Running

About This Connect Group
What - Morning Running Group
Who - Men
When - Wednesdays at 6:15 AM, starting first week of June
Where - Sertoma Park
Whether you're an avid runner, casual jogger, or can rock a walk, this group is for you—all fitness levels are welcome! The plan each week is to meet up at 6:15 AM, take about 10 minutes to get loose and pray, and then start out on a run together. On average we'll aim for the run to be around 30 minutes, but you're always welcome to go longer or shorter and go at whatever pace is best for you!
