FALL 2023
7-week session | Week of Sept. 11 – Week of Oct. 23rd
David is a towering figure in the Old Testament.
From his humble beginnings as a young shepherd, David rose to become Israel’s second and most beloved king. Despite his legacy (as a king, musician, and poet), David is hardly the picture of morality. His story is a mixed bag of successes and failures, faithfulness and rebellion.
At his best, David is a foreshadowing of the righteousness and kingship of Jesus. At his worst, he is a cautionary tale of sin’s effects.
Ultimately, David’s life is a picture of how the faithful love of God meets us in the messiness of our ordinary lives. As we explore David’s life, we seek to discover how “God-shaped, God-influenced, God-graced these storied lives of ours in fact are.” (from Leap Over A Wall by Eugene Peterson)
What are Life Groups?
Life Groups are the primary place we share life with others and go deeper in faith. Typically made up of 8 – 12 people, Life Groups share the practices of eating, learning, and praying together. Some groups are cross-generational while others consist of people in a similar stage of life.
Three sessions throughout the year (typically 5-7 weeks long) provide natural “onramps” for people to get connected to a group. During each session, groups enjoy a meal together and dive into a study connected to a sermon series or other topic.
When a session ends, groups may take a break or opt to continue meeting for community building, service in the city, or further study and prayer.
When & Where Do Groups Meet?
Groups meet on Tuesdays & Wednesdays at both our Overland Park and Mission locations. Groups also meet on other days/times of the week. There is limited children’s programming on Tuesdays, but full programming as well as Student Life on Wednesday evenings.
Advanced registration is required for onsite groups.
How can I get Connected?
We would love to get you connected to a Life Group that suits where you are in your life right now. Please contact our Pastor of Spiritual Formation, Jason Veach, to learn more and get connected.
