Starting Point
Starting Point will be held on Sunday mornings during the 11am service. A new session of Starting Point begins on Sunday Sun, Jan 22, Admin Conference Room, Bldg 8.
What is Starting Point?
Starting Point is a conversational environment where people can explore faith and experience community. Starting Point groups are a safe place for people with questions about faith, as well as those who want to learn about the Bible and Christianity. Groups meet for about 10 weeks and together explore the grand story of the Bible. One of the goals of Starting Point is to help participants find their places in the story.
Who is it for?
Starting Point is for those who are curious about God, Jesus, the Bible, or Christianity.
Starting Point is for those who have just begun a relationship with Jesus Christ.
Starting Point is for those who have some church experience, but have been away for a while.
