Spiritual Growth Opportunities

Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds, so that you may discern what is the will of God – what is good and acceptable and perfect. Romans 12:2

Spiritual formation takes place over a lifetime. Grow in grace and truth through Bible study, discipleship, attending Christian classes and retreats, or practicing the spiritual disciplines. The Adult Education Team works to provide opportunities for adults in all stages of their faith journey. From seekers to seasoned scholars, there are resources to help us go deeper in our relationship with God. In addition to the resources below, the many women’s, men’s, and coed groups that meet regularly are always welcoming others to join in their fellowship and studies. Check those groups out under “Connect + Grow” and please do not hesitate to contact us for guidance or questions.

…until all of us come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to maturity, to the measure of the full stature of Christ. Ephesians 4:13
