Intentional Fatherhood

Apple Valley

Wednesday at 7:00 PM

We live in a world that alone will not produce Godly men. Our children, and more specifically our sons, are culturally acclimatized to "never grow up" and live the life of a boy in a man's body. Living this first hand with my own son, I refuse to let the world dictate his future outcome. The goal of this group is for a small group of men to "intentionally" disciple our sons to become the Godly men the Lord calls them to be. Utilizing Jon Tyson's book "The Intentional Father" as a guide, this is a men's group for fathers of boys between the ages of 12-19 who are interested in helping their boys step into becoming a man of God.

Love Compels Us | A Witnessing Group

Eagan

Saturday at 9:00 AM

We live in a context where people have access to the gospel, but how many have met a faithful Christian witness who conversed with them in grace & truth? How many have been told Jesus loves them - not just the world in general, but them specifically? The fields are ready for harvest even here in Eagan. Let's go out in the love & power of Christ and join Him in His worldwide mission to seek and save the lost... This group will meet on various dates. Register to receive updates on specific opportunities to go out together and witness... (Note, this group is for ALL! We are all called to be witnesses to Jesus Christ (Acts 1:8). He gives His Spirit freely to all who ask (Acts 2:39; Luke 11:9-13) - the same Spirit who empowered the believers we read about in Acts! Our competence comes from God (2 Corinthians 3:5). You don't have to have any special skills, feel like you're already "good" at this, have a specific type of personality, or have been a Christian for a certain amount of time. Take the pressure off of yourself; we go out in God's strength, "not by might, nor by power, but by His Holy Spirit." We're all learning and growing together!)

M.o.M (Moms on Mission) | Saturdays | Madison Ziegenhagen

Minnetrista

Saturday at 9:00 AM

M.o.M is a small group designed for mothers to come and do life together. We will meet in our homes year round, every other week, taking time off for summer break and winter holidays & each season will bring a new topic or study to work through. Kids are welcome to play while the mom's meet. Our hope is that this is a place to spend time with new and old friends - focusing on authenticity, deep connection, and spiritual growth. During the spring season, we will work through the study "Find Your People" by Jennie Allen, a 7 week series featured on RightNow Media. There is a study guide available on Amazon that is encouraged, but not required. This study is focused on building community - God designed His people to do life together, but we live in a dissociated world that caters to loneliness. Our hope is that this study will break down any walls & provide a community-driven atmosphere for M.o.M moving forward. We can't wait to see you! Link to purchase study guide:
