Small Groups FAQs
I’m a freshmen, do I have to go to the small group Bible study for my specific dorm?
It’s really valuable to get to connect with people who live around you, but we understand that sometimes the Bible study meeting in your dorm area isn’t scheduled on a night that works for you. If that’s the case, feel free to reach out to another leader and check out a different group with people in your class.
I am a freshman and live off-campus. Which small group should I go to?
You can reach out to the small group leader who is meeting at a time that works for your schedule and go to that small group.
What do we do at small group?
We open with something to help you build friendships with the others in the group, and then we take time to read a passage in the Bible and talk through discussion questions about it. We have a certain book of the Bible or series each semester that we go through. At the end, we will usually share prayer requests or things going on in our lives.
