ADULT LIFE GROUP

Foundations

Connect, grow, and go together.

Foundations is a small group where we study the Bible, ask questions, and explore how our faith shapes everyday life. We’re learning to follow Jesus together and building friendships along the way.

Our group includes couples who are dating or married, including families with young or grade-school children. If you’re looking for a place to grow in your faith and get to know others in a similar stage of life, we’d love to meet you.

What Sunday morning is like

We meet at 9:30 a.m., starting with time to catch up and visit. Sunday mornings with kids can be hectic, so if you’re running a little late, you’re still welcome to join us.

We share what’s going on in our lives, including things we’re thankful for and things we’d like prayer for. Someone volunteers to lead us in prayer, and then we spend most of our time studying the Bible together. It’s a conversation, so we read, ask questions, and talk about how the passage connects to everyday life. You’re welcome to join in, but you’re also welcome to listen.

We finish around 10:35, giving everyone time to pick up kids, get another cup of coffee, and head to the 10:45 worship service.

More than Sunday morning

We share meals, celebrate big milestones and everyday moments, and make time to enjoy life together. Throughout the week, we stay in touch, pray for one another, and serve our church and community.

A story from our Life Group

Joey, Laurin & Lucas

One of our favorite Sundays recently was watching Joey and Laurin be baptized alongside their son, Lucas.

They’re part of our Life Group, and we’ve had the privilege of getting to know them, studying the Bible together, serving together, praying together, and watching their faith grow.

“Through the bed ministry and Dathan’s Life Group class, and just everybody at Highland, God was working on us.”

— Joey

Their story is about what God has been doing in their family. We’re grateful to be a part of it.

Dathan & Abigail

Life Groups like ours have been an important part of our lives throughout our marriage. They’ve been there through fostering and adoption, raising our two girls, and plenty of ups and downs along the way.

We’ve experienced firsthand the difference that studying the Bible and having people around you who genuinely care can make. That’s a big part of why we love leading this group together.
