Mark Enochs

This co-ed group will be studying the book "What Happens Next" by Max Lucado. "What Happens Next" is an optimistic, accessible, and nonsensational guide to what the Bible says about heaven's time line that will empower you to face the future with faith. Max takes you on a well-researched overview of what God's Word says, exploring the following four big ideas that provide a solid foundation for understanding God's eternal plan. Our group will meet on Wednesday evenings, starting September 18.

MenPromise Principle

The Promise Principle | Derek Blumberg & Tim Short

Saturday at 7:30 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. Text the word “promise” to 94000 or use the link below to read more about The Promise Principle and see the annual Bible reading plan: This group meets from from 7:30AM - 9:00AM each Saturday. We look forward to meeting you! - Derek, Tim and the Saturday morning men. Connect with us: Call or text Derek at 952-239-2777. Call or text Tim at (952) 807-2553

Bible Study before Church

Shakopee

Sunday at 8:00 AM

Excited to dig into the Word and fellowship before church from 8a-8:50a every 2nd and 4th Sunday of the month. Anyone is welcome. We will be meeting at the Caribou right next to the Shakopee campus. My goal is for us to understand the Word and God more. I am open to how we want to format the Bible study. We can start by diving into different stories from the Bible and asking questions to understand what it is trying to teach us about God, about man, and how we can apply the lessons we learn in our day to day lives. See you there!

Serve Our Community | CST | ICCM Life Center Street Team

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:

Meals Ministry

Apple Valley

This group is for those who wish to bless others by making a meal. When a family is facing a challenging situation (whether a new baby, health diagnosis, emergency, etc.) and could use some support, my desire is to help provide some meals. When a need arises, I will create a meal train schedule & send it out to all members. You do not need to participate for every need - you can choose what works for you! My goal is to grow the group to easily provide for any need without relying too heavily on any member. This is not a typical small group & will not be meeting together.
