Times are tough in the world around us right now and we are experiencing new things every day that we have never had to deal with before that can leave us with fear, anxiety, doubt, and confusion. On top of that, being in isolation makes us feel alone and depressed. As human beings, we long for connection; we were made to connect with other people. Right now, more than ever before, we are in desperate need for family, friends, and community with other people. It’s time to start fellowshipping again with friends and family, and you are a part of God’s family. One way to better experience what that means is to get connected with others in your church family.

Though there are many ways to get plugged in, few compare to a Life Group Bible study. Life Groups provide a way to connect with others, experience a sense of belonging, and hear from God through His Word. Our Life Groups will meet both in person or online on various nights of the week either on campus or in backyards and parks near the church. In each Life Group, you can expect to find a relaxed and friendly atmosphere creating a fun place to be.

We know that joining a Life Group for the first time can be daunting not knowing anyone or going to a place you are unfamiliar with. To help ease your transition into Life Groups at Canyon Hills, we strongly recommend that each person looking to join a group for the very first time, start by signing up for our ALPHA Life Group that meets each session. This group meets on our church campus each week and is a dinner conversation that allows you to explore all of your questions about faith, God, and religion in general, all within a non-threatening or judgmental environment.

Once you go through our ALPHA Life Group, it is recommended that you then move into the Rooted Life Group that also meets each session. This Life Group meets on our church campus each week and will introduce you to some of the pastors and allow you to build some new friendships in a non- threatening environment while deepening your spiritual walk. Rooted is a 10-week program for people in every life stage, wherever they are on their walk with Christ. Rooted is a catalyst for life change where discussion is held in a group environment, creating a safe space for biblical exploration and practical learning experiences. Through these 10 weeks, rooted will help put into practice not only what Jesus did, but also help us to discover what our purpose is and how it fits within God’s broader redemptive narrative.
