Empower | City Campus | Fall 2023

City

Tuesday at 6:30 PM

There is nothing more exciting than living a Spirit-filled empowered life! This eight-week Bible study will instruct, encourage, experience and inspire you to walk in all that Jesus has made available to you through the infilling of the Holy Spirit and the gifts that He imparts. These gifts are vital and need to be used in order to be effective witnesses for Him. In this study you will learn about the unseen world, which is called the Spirit realm. Even though we don't see it with our physical eyes, we interact with it on a daily basis. You will also learn in detail about each of the nine gifts of the Spirit and how they are used throughout the Old and New Testament by ordinary people. Finally, you will have the opportunity to deepen your relationship with the Lord through the lessons on prayer and intercession. Are you ready to get started? Empower is open to anyone at River Valley that has been through our core groups Alpha and Freedom. If you have not done 1 or both of them yet, we would strongly encourage attending those small groups before attending Empower. It will be helpful to you for receiving what God has in store for you. Empower will meet on campus on Tuesday nights, 6:30pm-8pm, from September 26 thru November 21.

No Regrets Pathway

Shakopee

Friday at 6:30 AM

Want to take your business or career to the next level but you're hitting a ceiling of complexity? Leadership in business has a tendency to isolate you. No Regrets Pathway is a Small Group for men who desire greater success in life and in business that might value an informal board this group can provide, to not only brainstorm with you but also believe God with you to get clarity, to identify your real obstacles, and to pray for dynamic resolutions that come from above. No man is an island and no man wants to get to the end of his life filled with regrets. Join us on Friday mornings at 6:30am for coffee, insights, and a path we believe may very well minimize regrets in your life. We meet in Edina near Hwy 100 and 494. Call Joe Beard at 612-401-2357 or email joe@bionicgiant.com

The Promise Principle | Jerold Baldwin & Paul Fisher

Eagan

Saturday at 7:00 AM • Virtual

You are welcome here! This is a "join at any time" 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 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.

The Knowledge of the Holy

Crosstown

Saturday at 7:00 AM

This will be an every other week study of Tozer's classic "The Knowledge of the Holy;" a study of the character and attributes of God. We will meet for 90 minutes each time for fellowship, a meal, and discussion of two chapters from the book each time in a relaxed setting. From the Amazon website: This book, "by beloved evangelical author and Christian mystic A.W. Tozer, illuminates God’s attributes—from wisdom, to grace, to mercy—and in doing so, attempts to restore the majesty and wonder of God in the hearts and minds of all Christians. Informative as well as inspirational, The Knowledge of the Holy returns the towering Christian concept of God to the center of the religious mind, fostering a renewed appreciation of the magnitude of God’s glory. This timeless gift breathes a spirit of devotion for all Christians, from those who are newly arrived to those who are committing themselves anew to Jesus Christ." Please purchase the book on your own ($13). It's available on amazon.com.
