"We know that Christ, being raised from the dead, will never die again; death no longer has dominion over him.
For the death he died he died to sin, once for all,
but the life he lives he lives to God.
So you also must consider yourselves dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus.”

nor anything else in all creation,
will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

We’re excited to announce the launch of our brand-new Small Groups beginning Sunday, May 17, 2026!
This season, our groups will be using a brand-new curriculum built directly from our Sunday messages — giving you the opportunity to go deeper into God’s Word, ask questions, grow in your faith, and build meaningful connections with others in our church family.
Small Groups are where community happens. It’s a place to be encouraged, known, prayed for, and strengthened alongside others walking the same journey of faith.
If you’ve been looking for your next step, this is it.
Don’t just attend church — get connected.
You can find available groups now on the Church Center app, or get with Chris Croy for help finding the right group for you.
