Core doctrines are foundational truths taken from the Bible that shape and guide how we live our lives.
How It Works
Core Doctrines is a series of videos for Community Groups that walk you through some of the essential truths we believe as a church from the Bible.
Watch a Core Doctrine Video
Your Community Group will take one of your regular group nights and watch a Core Doctrine video together. Each video is between 30-45 minutes long.
Discuss the Content in Your Group
After your group watches the video together, your Community Group Leader will walk you through a guided discussion based on the content in the Core Doctrines video.
Just Show Up, No Homework Necessary
All you need to do is to show up to your normal Community Group, during a normal night. You don’t need to prepare or watch anything ahead of time. Everything will be watched and discussed during your group time.
1-2 Times a Semester
All groups will do this one or two times a semester (Fall/Spring).
