Welcome Home is your first step at River Valley Church. You were created for a purpose, and we want to help you discover that purpose! You will build community, understand how God made you and dive deeper into your walk with Jesus. We can’t wait to meet you! This is a 4-week small group. Once Welcome Home is complete, we encourage you to find another small group where you can continue growing in your faith as you build friendships.

Women Growing In Faith

Shakopee

Thursday at 10:00 AM

As a church family, we will be diving deeper into our vision for this year through a unified 4-week small group series--join the momentum to ASK, SEEK, and PRAY together! Each week, we will discuss and build upon the topic from the previous Sunday's message, guided by key Scriptures and questions provided in a booklet. A group for women who want to go deeper into scripture to both deepen their relationship with God and to grow in their faith. Our aim is to allow the word of God to transform our minds and our hearts in fellowship with a community of believers looking for the same.

Book Study: Insanity of Obedience | Vicki Hernandez

City

Let's journey together! Join me for a sharpening book study that will prepare us to share the Good News of Jesus Christ, whether that is across the street or the oceans. The Insanity of Obedience is a bold challenge to global discipleship. Nik Ripken exposes the danger of safe Christianity and calls readers to something greater. The Insanity of Obedience challenges Christians in the same, provocative way that Jesus did. We will meet every other Sunday at the campus at 1pm.

The Promise Principle | Ben Bertell & Loren Schulz

Apple Valley

Wednesday at 6:30 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 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.

Gospel of Luke | Kiyun Lee

City

Sunday at 5:00 PM

The vision of this small group is to foster an in-depth study of the Gospel of Luke utilizing higher and lower criticisms. The heart of the group is to equip its members in biblical hermeneutics so that they can read the Scripture in proper context. The small group will touch on the synoptic tradition, the historical backdrop of the land of Israel in the first century, and the cultural and spiritual worldview of Second Temple Judaism. The group will read through the chapters of the gospel, selecting the most important section of each chapter. The group will also read the gospel text synoptically, involving similar pericopes from Matthew and Mark to enhance our understanding of the synoptic tradition. At the very heart of it, my hope is that we all become better students of the word and of Christ through this group.
