Bible Studies, Groups and Classes
Spiritual growth doesn’t only happen in corporate worship but often happens in less formal gatherings like groups. We hope you’ll join one of our group opportunities as we experience the power of Christ in our lives, dig deeper into our faith, and grow closer to God. We want to help you find a place to truly belong, celebrate life's joys, and weather the storms together. We pray for you to become who God made you to be through personal and spiritual growth.
Looking for a study to share with your group or a Bible Buddy? Our library of Scripture+Shared studies include daily readings and weekly videos created by St. Luke's pastors.
