Winter-Spring LIFE|Groups
The goal of LIFE|Groups at Christ Life is to connect you in community through a smaller group of like-minded people.
LIFE|Groups are offered during the following semesters:
- Winter/Spring – 10 weeks prior to Easter
- Summer Groups – 6 weeks during the middle of the summer
- Fall – 10 weeks prior to Thanksgiving
Life Groups are an opportunity to reach out to others, while growing in your walk with the Lord. Groups meet once a week in homes, businesses, restaurants, or at the church. The groups change and begin again three times a year, so you have the opportunity to try out different ones. You’ll never fully experience all that Christ Life Church has to offer until you connect in a small group!
Up-Coming Winter-Spring Semester
Church Wide Topic:
Plan B by Pete Wilson
Learn how God often does His best work in our most hopeless situations.
What do you do with a shattered dream? Or an unmet expectation? What do you do when your life isn’t turning out the way you thought it would? What do you do when you have to turn to Plan B?
In Plan B pastor and author Pete Wilson uses real life stories of disappointments and hurts along with the biblical stories of men and women like David, Joseph, and Ruth to help readers come to grips with the truth that they will face situations that in themselves they are completely unable to handle but that in them God is simply trying to get them to surrender their plans so that they can receive His. He identifies our common responses to difficulties and offers hope, helping us to
- Understand what God might be up to
- See how surrender helps us to receive God’s plan
- Embrace the community of believers
- Reconcile a God of love with a life of tragedy and suffering
Wilson points readers to the cross as not just the starting line but the centerpiece of our story with God and shares that it is there we turn in our Plan B and find the undeniable relationship between crisis and our hope followed by true spiritual transformation. “God wants to live inside the questions” says Wilson and then reminds us that “the cross is proof that He does not always change the circumstance but that He always has a purpose in every circumstance. He will never let go of us. He will hold us and His cross will be an anchor for us.”
