Stepping Up Men's Bible Study: Begins September 8, 2026
What does it mean to be a man who lives with courage, purpose and a clear vision for life? In Stepping Up, Dennis Rainey, cofounder of FamilyLife®, challenges men to embrace courageous, biblical manhood through every stage of life. This study will help you honestly evaluate where you are, discover God's purpose for your life, and develop a plan to live with intentionality and faith. Whether you're just beginning your journey or seeking renewed direction, this study offers practical encouragement and biblical wisdom. This study will begin with a kick-off social event on Tuesday, Sept. 8 at 6 p.m., then will meet for 10 weeks on Tuesdays beginning September 22 from 6-8 p.m. at the church. Please contact our Men’s Ministry Coordinator, Brandon Killam(opens in new tab), to sign up.
The Shepherding Series: Begins September 9, 2026
Join us for a midweek meal at 6 p.m., then class begins at 6:30 p.m. The Shepherding Series, is a seven-week study with four classes designed around different stages of family life.
- Shepherding Your Family - for those with children in elementary school
- Shepherding Your Teenagers - for those with children in middle and high school
- Shepherding Your Adult Children - for those with children in college and beyond
- Shepherding Your Grandchildren - for those with grandchildren of any age
Throughout scripture, the metaphor of the shepherd is used to describe those entrusted with caring for, guiding and leading others. But what does it look like to live out that calling as a parent or grandparent? Together, we’ll explore a biblical framework for shepherding and discover three key responsibilities that can help us shepherd well through every stage of family life. Each session will offer practical, immediately applicable steps for clearer communication, stronger relationships and a deeper understanding of how we can faithfully guide the people God has placed in our lives. Whether you’re parenting young children, navigating the teenage years, supporting adult children or investing in the next generation as a grandparent, you’ll be encouraged and equipped to lead with wisdom, grace and purpose.
