Book of Acts- Steve and Olga Alsip

Crosstown

Thursday at 6:00 PM

With the flick of a match a flame is ignited and spreads into a roaring fire. Over 2,000 years ago in Jerusalem, a flame was started and spread to Judea, Samaria and then to all nations. Acts provides Luke's eyewitness account of that flame and fire...the birth and growth of the church. Empowered by the Holy Spirit, a small but courageous band of disciples preached, taught, healed and loved wherever God sent them. Join us for this in depth study of a movement that has changed lives and history. We are a inter-generational Small Group of both couples and singles. We start each week with a simple pot luck meal and fellowship at 6:00. The study begins promptly at 6:30.

Book of Job

Apple Valley

Monday at 6:30 PM

Join us for a study of the Old Testament book of Job. In our study, we will explore suffering, God's sovereignty, and glorifying God in the midst of pain. We will be meeting the 2nd and 4th Mondays of each month from 6:30pm-8pm. We would be happy to have you join us!

Common Ground

Crosstown

Wednesday at 6:30 PM

Christ calls for unity in His Church and as Christ followers we are called to love our neighbor. In our current culture, however, many topics are leading us to disagreement and separation rather than unity and love. Discussions about race, diversity, and justice feel increasingly volatile and divisive. Rather than looking to politics, pop culture, or social media, we must look to the Word of God as our source of truth. Our unity and love in the church is meant to be our first witness to the world. We must find a common ground to bridge the growing divide and bring healing to relationships in our churches, families, and communities. In this group we will seek Christ, learn with an open mind, and build unity through Bible study and listening to the experience of others. We will meet for 8 weeks; every Wednesday from April 17 - June 5, in the Crosstown Lounge from 6:30 - 8:30 pm.

Couples and Family Small Group

Eagan

Sunday at 8:00 PM  •  Virtual

Looking to find community and connect with others in a similar stage of life? Join us as we connect as couples online over zoom twice a month. They say raising kids takes a village and who better than surround yourself with other believers who can encourage and speak truth into your life and marriage. Join us as we dig into different bible studies to grow in our knowledge of God's Word, parenting skills and marriage. We have found that this is a great way for families to get connected with others without the excuse of no childcare. Put them to bed and hop online! (Sometimes we've got a few kids that join their parents when bedtime is a challenge) We will be trying to meet a couple times a small group season in person for family or men/women's fellowship times. Please have each spouse register for the group. Look forward to having you join us! Our group meets over zoom twice a month. We found last year when having to do our group over zoom that it actually worked well for families with little kids to find community in this way (just put your kids to bed and hop on your computer). We will be trying to meet a couple times a small group season in person for family fellowship times. Please have each spouse register for the group. Look forward to having you join us!

Divorce Care

Apple Valley

Thursday at 6:30 PM

DivorceCare is a biblically based, Christ-centered support group seminar. Each session shows a 30-minute video followed by a small group discussion about the video. The DivorceCare videos present experts, ministers, and Christian counselors discussing divorce-related issues such as depression, anger, forgiveness, and reconciliation. Real people share their stories of how they deal with the pain and heartbreak of divorce and separation. During the week between meetings, group members complete a daily Bible study and practical exercises to help them heal from their hurt and pain. DivorceCare is for people who are separated or divorced. A workbook costs $20, which will be collected on the first night we meet. (please let us know if you need help with the cost of the book and we can take care of that)
