Grow

We are a Christ-centered, bible-based family that engages all people in our community to become disciples of Jesus Christ.
Everything we do, from worshiping in small groups to serving the church and the community, flows from that one purpose. We want to get to know you and for you to find your place here at Family of Christ!
The Grow part of our Discipleship Pathway is focused on growing in relation to Jesus and others. We encourage you to develop healthy spiritual habits of worship and devotion, become deeply invested in Scripture, learn the teachings of faith, and learn to talk and think like a Christian.
The following resources are a great place to get started!

Has American Christianity Failed?

Growing Older, Growing Wiser 

Starts September 13th
Join us for a six-week study based on Bryan Wolfmueller's Has American Christianity Failed? Together, we'll examine how revivalism, pietism, and decision-centered faith have shaped the American church and compare these movements with a Christ-centered understanding of God's grace. Through thoughtful discussion and biblical study, we'll explore the challenges and opportunities facing the church today.
Join us in the FOC kitchen September 13th - October 25th
Starts September 13th

Abiding in Christ: Why Your Worldview Matters

Why do people see and experience the world so differently? What shapes the way we understand truth, make decisions, and live out our faith?
Join us for Abiding in Christ: Why Your Worldview Matters, a thought-provoking sermon series exploring the worldview questions we encounter in everyday life—from science and government to sexuality, the value of life, and more.
As followers of Christ, our worldview matters. The way we understand the world shapes how we live, what we value, and how we faithfully follow Jesus. This series is designed to challenge, encourage, and equip us to think biblically about some of the most important issues of our time.

Following each worship service, October 4th – November 22nd, our elders will lead a discussion using a guided resource. This will allow us to dig deeper into the sermon, ask questions, and consider how we can live out what we’ve heard.

We believe this could be one of the most important and formative sermon series you hear this year. Come ready to listen, think, discuss, and grow as we learn what it means to abide in Christ in every area of life.
Join us in the Staff Lounge, October 4th - November 22nd. Can't make it to the discussion group? Click on the week below to view the Worldview discussion guide.

Worldview - Week 1
The Christian cannot simply absorb the world's ideas and then add Jesus on top. Christ and His Word must remain at the center.

Worldview - Week 2
Christianity doesn't begin with ourselves and our opinions. It begins with Jesus Christ. We do not ask Jesus to fit into our worldview. We allow Jesus and His Word to shape our worldview.
Click HERE for the discussion guide.
Worldview - Week 3
God created the material world and gives us its blessings to receive with thanksgiving and use in love and service. Yet material things cannot give us what only Christ can give. We live in the world, but our identity, security, and hope are found in Christ.

Click HERE for the discussion guide. 
Worldview - Week 4
Science is a gift from God for investigating His creation, but it is not the ultimate authority for all truth. Christians receive scientific inquiry with gratitude while recognizing that God's Word alone reveals the Gospel: Christ has come to save sinners and give eternal life.
