Small Groups
Join Us!
Welcome to Small Groups at Crossroads!
We encourage you to think about a small group that might fit where you are right now. Whether you decide to join an existing group or start a new one we want to encourage you to see the value and power of meeting with others to speak out loud your spirituality, to talk about your faith, to listen to others to better understand where they are, and where they are in their faith.

Not Your Parents (or Kids) Sunday School
Sundays, 11:15am at Crossroads
This is a new group that will meet after worship. During our first meeting we will decide on a study that is of interest to the group. This is a group for anyone who wants to connect with others on their life journey, engage and learn as we talk about God’s love and its impact on our everyday lives.
The Big Picture Online Group
Mondays, 7-8pm
This five week study will use the book, The Big Picture: Seeing God’s Dream for Your Life by Jevon Caldwell-Gross and Nicole Caldwell-Gross. The study focuses on the story of Joseph in Genesis to look at how God weaves seemingly random, disconnected events into a larger story for our lives.
Pub Theology
Every other Monday, 8-9:15pm, Ken Currie’s home
Pub Theology is a group of men who are open, honest and supportive of one another. They pick different books/topics and then come together over beer/wine/water/snacks/etc. to discuss in a casual conversation. The group will be reading The Genius of Jesus and complementing this with the book of Exodus.
Encountering God- Study on Spiritual Disciplines
Mondays, 7-8pm at Crossroads
This seven-session Bible study unpacks the biblical foundation for these sacred habits along with approachable ways to practice disciplines like prayer, study, worship, rest, simplicity, generosity, celebration, and many more.
Tuesday Morning Men’s Group
Tuesdays, 6:45-7:45am via Zoom
This group of men meets at the beginning of the day. Using prayers and praises, they offer mutual support in an honest and safe environment. They journey together as they follow in the way of Jesus.
Women’s Bible Study
Tuesdays, 9:30-11:15am at Crossroads
The group will be studying, “When You Pray” by Kelly Minter. Do you have trouble thinking of what to say to God? Join us as we study prayers in the bible that can inspire our own. As you draw near to God through prayer, your faith will be strengthened, and your heart united with Christ.
Mid-Day Mom’s Bible Zoom
Tuesdays, 12:45-2:00pm via Zoom
The group will be watching Season 2 of The Chosen and discussing one episode each week. The Chosen is a film series following the life of Jesus throughout his time in ministry as depicted in the gospels.
Tuesday Evening Small Group- Disciple Fast Track

This small group meeting includes sharing praises, prayers with a study that includes an ongoing series of books for discussion. This all-inclusive, multi-generational small group provides an environment for contemplation of our everyday walk with Jesus. The next study will be Disciple.
God, Anxiety, and Us
Wednesdays, 7pm at the church
Some sources say that the word “fear” is mentioned over 500 times in the Bible. Fear and anxiety can impact our health and our faith journey. Join in to explore and develop prayerful strategies to manage anxiety and fear and support the journey to peace.
New Women’s Bible Study
Thursdays, 7-8:30pm at Crossroads
We will start with a four week study from the book Common Ground -Loving Others Despite our Differences, followed by a six week study of the book Fierce- Women of the Bible Who Changed the World.
Mom’s Connect
1st and 3rd Fridays, 12-2pm at Crossroads
A moms group to connect, learn, and support each other. This group meets at Crossroads and generally share a meal.
Parenting Teens Book Club
Connect with other parents of teenagers as this group dives into the book, The Emotional Lives of Teenagers by Lisa Damour, PHD. We will have a group chat to encourage one another as we make progress reading this book over a five-week period. At the end of the five weeks, we will gather to discuss the book, encourage and learn from one another and make some new friends.
Health & Wellness Ministry: In the Spirit of Caleb
We believe there were nutritional and physical components to the longevity and quality of Caleb’s life as indicated in the Bible. In the busyness of life today, people often make health secondary, when how we eat and care for ourselves should be a primary focus. Through this ministry our goal is to encourage and support the physical health of people in our church and the community.
Young Adults
This is a new group run by young adults aiming to connect with, learn with, and grow in their faith with other young adults. They will go on excursions like escape rooms, laser tag, and paint your own pottery, and will work on service projects while providing time to talk about our lives and offer each other support.
