Alex Shepp

God is for healthy marriages. A strong marriage with God at the center creates a firm foundation for a family. This is a 10 week course covering 10 of the most common talking points in marriage. We welcome anyone who is seriously dating, engaged, newly married, or married for decades. We will spend 10 weeks (may not be consecutive) covering topics from kids to money to parenting, etc. There will be a video teaching on each topic and book that holds all the tools for discussion throughout the week. You don't have to be in a "rough" season to work on your marriage, Not only is the content enlightening but building community with others with the same goals in marriage is invaluable. NOTE: The Shepps have 4 kids under 10 and anticipate other families with younger kids. We will discuss possible group childcare options as the date gets closer.

The Promise Principle | Rochelle Blumberg

Wednesday at 7:00 PM

You are welcome here! This is a "join at anytime" women'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 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. Text the word "promise" to 94000 or use the link below to read more about The Promise Principle and see our weekly reading plan (this link will bring you to the men's Promise Principle site - even though this is a women's group we will follow the men's Promise Principle reading plan): https://rivervalley.org/promise-principle/

Authentic Manhood | Matt Yost

Apple Valley

Monday at 6:30 PM

This group is for men pursuing God and asking Him to equip them with all they need to walk with Him in truth, passion, purpose, purity and discipleship. The group utilizes the Authentic Manhood curriculum ("33" series -for the 33 years that Jesus walked the earth). The curriculum and group resources offer clear and practical Biblical insights on God’s design for manhood that are both refreshing and inspiring. The group will point men to a gospel-centered vision of life that sets them up to enjoy God’s grace as they pursue the promises of His Word. Group Timeline: Stage 1: 12 weeks - Authentic Manhood for Grown Men (A Man’s Design, His Story, and His Traps) (meets for 12 consecutive weeks). Stage 2: 6 additional weeks: Man and his Work 6 additional weeks: Man and his Marriage, and Fatherhood Men can join at anytime, but in order to earn a camo wristband with “Iron Sharpens Iron” (Free, Pure Disciples on the inside) a man must complete his full commitment to Stages 1 & 2.
