The Promise Principle | Mark Johnson & Stew Ballinger

Apple Valley

Saturday at 7:00 AM

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 Men's Lifegroups. 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.

Wednesday at 6:30 AM • Virtual

Start your morning out with the Lord in this virtual women's group (pajamas, no make up and coffee/tea/chai encouraged!). This is a "join at anytime" group and we will be following the same reading plan as the men's Promise Principle groups, reading a chapter a week, diving deep into God's Word, and have the joy and blessings of fellowship with other women. Living a life with Christ is a lifelong journey. In His Word, the Bible, God gave us the perfect manual to get to know Him and learn to navigate this life He has given us. So, no matter where you are in your walk with the Lord, you will get encouragement from His Word and other women to help you take your journey deeper with Jesus.
