Life Groups Are Coming Again!

This is the coolest group study format ever and it is coming back!

It's simple Beginning one week before each meeting, your group will all read the same passage of Scripture on your own. We suggest you read it in the morning before breakfast and again at night just before you go to bed. By doing that you will have read the same verse 14 times in one week.

When you come together with your group, your facilitator will then ask you to close your Bible, and will then ask a series of questions designed to help your group work together as a team to recreate the passage from memory. It's that simple!

Your group will meet 10 times between February 1 and Mother's Day—and those days will be determined within your

Would you help us by hosting a group in your home?

Being a group leader is easy! You provide the place and the time, and Tony provides you the questions you need to ask to lead your group through the study. (His group meets one week ahead of all the other groups, and he sends out his notes right after his meeting so you have a few days to study them and think about them for your group.)

IF you would be willing to host a group, contact Tony ASAP!

You can CLICK HERE, text him or Facetime him (563-650-4008), Facebook him, or email him ( This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. )—but get hold of him SOON so people can sign up for your group!
