GROW TIME

Build Your Life
on the Word

Midweek matters.

That’s why we gather every Wednesday night at 7:00 PM for Grow Time—an intentional rhythm built to help you and your family grow deeper in your walk with Jesus. Whether you're new to faith or looking to be freshly stirred, there’s a space for you here.

From Bible-based teaching to practical classes for parents, leaders, and everyday believers, Grow Time is a place to be equipped, encouraged, and connected in community.

Come ready to be challenged, refreshed, and reminded of the beauty of growing together.

Join us every Wednesday night at 7:00 PM

July 1 - July 29: Watermelon Wednesdays

Main Session:
The World of the End

Wednesdays, August 5 - September 9 | Main Sanctuary

NO SIGN UP, JUST SHOW UP!

Join us Wednesday nights at 7pm for our Main Session as we dive into The World of the End series by Dr. David Jeremiah. Doesn’t it seem as if the hits keep coming both harder and closer together? Our world is packed with lies and loss of trust. Wars and rumors of war. Devastation and disaster. Pressure and persecution. Lawlessness and lovelessness. As we journey through this study together, our focus will not be on the challenges surrounding us, but on the faithfulness and sovereignty of God.

Come ready to have your faith strengthened, hope renewed, and heart anchored in Christ.

Identity in Christ

Wednesdays, August 26 - September 30 | Classroom 2

Scripture refers to those who have been born again in Christ as “new creations,” “co-heirs with Christ,” and “citizens of heaven.”  Yet, unfortunately, misperceptions can impact the extent to which we think upon, embrace, and exemplify our new identity.  Nothing determines how you live like the answer to the question, “who are you?” but how thoroughly do we get to the root of this point that affects all areas of life? 

In this 6-week interactive series, we’ll address – and wrestle with – that very question so that you can live with greater clarity and increasing confidence being who God made, and saved, you to be.    


Prophetic Class

Wednesdays, September 16 - October 28 (no meeting October 7) | Main Sanctuary

The Bible says that we all may prophesy and that the prophetic is simply hearing from God and sharing what you hear. In this class, you'll learn more about this important gift and how to begin to hear more from Heaven.


Praise & Worship Class

Wednesdays, September 16 - October 28 (no meeting October 7) | Finance Office

If you want to learn more about the purposes of praise, what true worship looks like, and how to rest in the presence of the Lord, then this 6-week class is for you!

Together, we’ll discover how to honor God through both our lifestyle and our expression of praise, while learning to embrace His presence and glory.

Come with an open heart, ready to praise, worship, and grow deeper in your relationship with the Lord. God has breakthrough and fresh encounters waiting just for you!
