Getting connected
We believe learning the importance of community, accountability, and relationships is vital. This is why getting connected to a small group is a core value of our church. Sometimes that means being proactive in the life of our church and seeking out areas to be involved. In a believer’s faith journey, following Jesus begins and leads to community and friendship with other believers.
And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some,
but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.

In this book, Richard D. Phillips cuts through the cultural confusion, highlights God's mandate for men, and encourages readers to join him on a journey of repentance and renewal. Phillips begins in the Garden of Eden, drawing foundational teaching for men from the earliest chapters of God's Word. This is teaching that reaches into all of life. Christian men today need to examine their hearts and embrace their God-given mandate. Only then will they be able to recognize their high calling and, by God's grace, serve faithfully in whatever context God has placed them.
