(COED) Where to Turn When Life Gets You Down: A Study in Ecclesiastes 6:30P
Life is a gift, but it rarely turns out how we expect. We’re convinced things like wealth, power, fame, and control will give us meaning and lead us to a flourishing life—but, every time, they let us down. So where do we go when the bottom falls out? Where do we turn when things are going great but we still feel empty? In this ten-session series, pastor Jonathan “JP” Pokluda takes us through the book of Ecclesiastes and shows us that we are not alone in our search for meaning

(COED) Healthy Parenting
We all want to raise great kids who love Jesus, but the pressures of modern life seem to work against our ability to do that. Healthy parenting is a blueprint for parenting scripturally rooted in how God treats his kids. This study will bring hope to weary parents looking for a better way to raise their kids.

(COED)  Building Healthy Relationships
God wired us for relationships, but relationships are anything but easy to maintain when it comes to our marriage, engagement, dating, and singleness. In this ten-session series we will dig into God’s Word to show us how to build healthy lives together with God, with our close circle, and in our community.

(COED) – Money Matters
When it comes to money do you feel burdened by debt, stress, and do you have enough to retire securely? In this group we will cover the important topics of debt, saving, giving, and developing your spending plan. It will help you to be smart about money and give you peace of mind with money throughout your lifetime.

(COED) –  Emotional Healthy Spirituality (Cost: $30)
Many sincere followers of Christ, who are considered “mature” remain stuck at a level of spiritual immaturity – especially when faced with interpersonal conflicts and crises. It’s not possible to be spiritually mature while remaining emotionally immature. We often neglect to reflect on what’s going on inside us and around us and are too busy to slow down to be with God. Discover a different approach to discipleship that addresses this void and gives you a powerful pathway to transformation.

(WOMEN) Experiencing the Miracles of Jesus
Unpack the miracles of Jesus as we explore all four Gospels discovering the ways Jesus healed, provided for, and calmed, the people He encountered. This study is about believing in the power of God who can accomplish ANYTHING. There’s nothing too big or too small for us to bring to Him. When we take time to learn about the overflowing kindness Jesus demonstrated to all kinds of people through miracles during His time on earth, we realize that He is radically generous, compassionate, and honoring toward all people. As you  dig into God’s Word, you will end the study in awe of the Messiah who relentlessly seeks, saves, and restores us.

Life is filled with mountaintop and wilderness experiences. For many of us, we feel unprepared on how to handle these moments.

Every man is called to be a mountain man. Join us as we go to the wilderness to meet with God. You will never be the same.
