Our goal at Church on the Rise is "to make Christ-like disciples in Douglas County and throughout the world". We accomplish this by Loving God, Loving Others and Serving Others. Our Growth Groups provide an excellent opportunity for relationship building and an in-depth study of topics that will help us draw closer to God.

SS103 Essentials of Discipline        Location: Room 110
Scott & Melissa Moore
Essentials of Discipline tackles the subject of discipline in a way that only Dr. James Dobson can. Based on his time-tested best sellers, you know the content has substance, but this video seminar also includes animation and man-on-the-street interviews. Lessons from Dr. Dobson have never been this fun!

SS104 Judges: Returning to God     Location: Room 104
Brian Fye
Sometimes we turn away from God. We fail to love those around us. We follow the gods of the world. Yet God remains loving and waits for us to return to him. In the book of Judges we see the story of Israel unfold as they follow this cycle. It is our story as well. The study of Judges should help you to hand the throne of your life over to God, the true King. Without God reigning in our hearts, our lives are destined to become as disastrous as the characters of this book.

SS105 Adult: Fruits of the Spirit
Leon Bennett                                      Location: Sanctuary
Join us for the next nine weeks to allow the Spirit of God to use the Word of God to produce HIS fruit in your life. This series not only helps you discover what the Bible says about the vital traits that the Holy Spirit produces in each believer, but also moves you beyond reflection and discussion to application in your life. You will grow in your ability to reflect the character of Jesus. The Word tells us we are to grow into HIS image.

M101 Adult: Parables of Jesus
Day & Time: Monday 1:00pm                Location: Call church office for more info.
Dean & Charlotte Boyer
Jesus told stories about everyday life, but they were stories with a twist. He intended to disturb people's assumptions about life. His short parables not only evoked emotion, they demanded life change. This popular interactive study will allow you and your group to comprehend, discuss, and maybe even debate the incredible teachings of the Son of God Himself. It's impossible to spend time with Jesus and remain the same.
