Promise Principle

Promise Principal Group | Cory Jenson & John Chappius

Faribault

Monday at 7:00 PM

You are welcome here! This is a "join at anytime" men's group. If you are looking for a deeper connection with God, this group is for you. God desires that we overcome being ruled by our thoughts and feelings, which are highly influenced by our circumstances — family, work, health, or temptation. 2 Peter 1:3–4 tells us that we can actually do this! It comes from learning to respond to God's promises in His Word and through prayer. This is the purpose of The Promise Principle Small Groups whether you’re still exploring faith in Christ, or you have been a Christian for many years, you’ll experience what we believe Jesus meant when He called His disciples to change the world by discovering and responding to His promises, truths, and commands. Text the word "promise" to 94000 or use the link below to read more about The Promise Principle and see our weekly reading plan. 's%20promises%20are,trust%20Him%20at%20His%20Word.

Reading the Bible for All Its Worth

Crosstown

Thursday at 6:30 PM

As a group, we read through a whole book of the Bible (In the Message Translation) to understand the whole arc of the Biblical story, to understand the context for the book, and then the chapters we are reading, and then we discuss it. No questions about the text or the Bible are off the table. Join us on the adventure!!

Our faith is rational and well-supported by sound facts: In Reasons Bible Study we will see really cool videos of evidence of biblical archeology in its real location, accurate manuscript evidence, fulfilled biblical prophecy and fascinating science. All of this to give facts to encourage our faith.

Revelation | Patti Schlesser & Donita Povolny

Apple Valley

Friday at 9:30 AM

Perhaps no other book of the Bible feels as inaccessible and as intimidating to us as the very last one. The book of Revelation overflows with images and ideas that confound our modern ears. But because all Scripture is God breathed and profitable, we must believe that Revelation is as accessible and helpful as any other book of the Bible! 2000 years ago, John’s revelation was circulated and read aloud among 7 churches in Asia minor. Those who heard the letter understood it and drew encouragement from its message. The same can be true for us today! Join us for this 10 session video Bible study with our teacher Jen Wilkin. Together we will discover how the last book of the Bible speaks both a steadying word of assurance and a strong call to endure to the church in every age.

Revelations Bible Study with Jen Wilkins | Maria Johnson

Apple Valley

Thursday at 6:30 PM

Perhaps no other book of the Bible feels as inaccessible and as intimidating to us as the very last one. The book of Revelation overflows with images and ideas that confound our modern ears. But if all Scripture is God-breathed and profitable, we should assume Revelation is as accessible and helpful as any other book of the Bible. Why don’t we see it that way? Two thousand years ago, John’s Revelation was circulated and read aloud among seven churches in Asia Minor. Those who heard the letter understood it and drew encouragement from its message. The same can be true for you today. Let's meet for 10 sessions of verse-by-verse Bible study as Jen Wilkin helps us discover how the last book of the Bible—the culmination of God's great story—speaks both a steadying word of assurance and a strong call to endure to the church in every age. Over half our time will be discussing our study together and other half will be watching Jen Wilkin video for our next discussion & study. We will meet every other week to allow more time to complete your study week's work.

Sermon Discussion

Apple Valley

Monday at 6:30 PM

Our group focuses on the weekly sermon. We discuss it in more detail while looking for application ideas we can support each other in implementing. We also look at the sermon through the lens of the annual vision message as we seek the direction Pastor Rob has received for our benefit. There is little to no homework, other than any action items you feel led to implement in your life. Oh yeah, and the snacks are epic too!

Crosstown

Friday at 6:00 PM

We partner with ICCM Life Center for a promising evening of God ordained encounters! Teams hit the streets of Minneapolis to love our neighbors, build relationships while connecting with others from your campus that are serving in this capacity. You can serve as often as it works for your schedule. Starting at 6pm we meet at the Life Center for prayer and worship (preparing food is also an option). At 7pm we then load up the Life Center buses and drive to various parts of the city, focusing on encampments, bus stops, high traffic areas and shelters. Throughout the night we will have countless opportunities to pray with, love on, and provide essentials to individuals and families while spreading the JOY OF THE LORD. :) We gather back at the Life Center around 9pm to share our experience, testimonies and encouragement. It’s always powerful to see how the Holy Spirit moves both inside us and through the individuals we meet. Hope to see you there!! Here is a document that has a few details:
