Whether you’re young or young at heart, single or married, there’s something for everyone in our church family. We invite you to check out our Bible studies, service or fellowship opportunities at any time during the year. All offer a great way to explore God’s Word, develop relationships and make valuable contributions with your God-given gifts.
We love to connect with and learn from the King of all kings. This happens in church on Sunday mornings and when we gather around God's Word in fellowship. We invite you to join one of our Life Groups and connect with each other and with God as He strengthens your faith through His Word.
Life Groups provide each person in King of Kings a place to grow, to connect, to encourage and be encouraged, and to serve. It is in the company of other believers that God calls, gathers, enlightens, and sanctifies us. He builds our faith, causing it to grow through the mutual study of His Word. It is in community that life's problems become manageable. We lean on each other for ideas, support, and encouragement. And as a community, it is easier to serve our brothers and sisters in Christ and the people we call family, friend, neighbor, and stranger, giving them a firsthand account of God's good work in our lives.
Because we have different kinds of people, there are different kinds of Life Groups. Most of our Life Groups are Bible study orientated, studying topics found in Scripture or going through a book in the Bible. Some groups are focused on outreach, and others are simply about spending time together in community with other Christians. Many of our groups dedicate some time to fellowship and serving others along with studying God's Word.
This winter's adult Life Groups will go from January 19 to April 11. Scroll through our different Life Groups below, pick any you can participate in, and register today! The Life Group leader will touch base with you before their first meeting.
There is no book in the Bible that teaches theology so directly as the book of Romans. Paul addresses our identity before God’s saving work, how God saves, and the life that a Christian should live. It’s an impressive work considering the Roman context in which these Christians lived. You’re invited to dive into this book of the Bible on Sunday mornings during Sunday School to see what the life of a Christian looks like.
This Life Group meets in the Shepherd's Room at 10:30 am

We all spend a lot of energy reaching for happiness, but we're never quite able to hang on to it. Real life happens, and our circumstances take us on an emotional rollercoaster. Oftentimes, the Bible's call to "be joyful always" seems out of reach--but it doesn't have to be. Defiant Joy reminds us that a joy that is defiant in the face of this broken world was meant to be ours. This joy isn't simply happiness on steroids, it's the unyielding belief that sorrow and loss do not have the final say. It's the stubborn determination to be present in whatever may come and interpret both goodness and grief by the light of heaven.

The Bondage of the Will is considered to be Luther’s seminal work. In it he addresses the human’s will and contends with whether it is free or not. Luther argues that, after the Fall, the human will is bound to sin. It cannot achieve righteousness on its own. He asserts that salvation and faith are entirely dependent on God’s grace and mercy. This was written in response to the Roman Catholic views for a free will. Everyone is invited to dive into Luther’s mind and theology, take a look at Scripture, and have their faith enriched. This Life Group will only meet online.
Baptism is a significant part of the Christian’s life. In it, God does some amazing things for our benefit! These things are so impressive, we are regularly reminded to look back to our baptisms for reassurance that God has saved us. In this study we will discuss our need for salvation, original sin, why babies are baptized, and who said all this is important. Anyone with some time on Tuesday mornings is invited to join Young at Heart to dive into the biblical theology behind baptism and its wonderful place in our lives.

The book of Proverbs helps us master the art of godly living. True wisdom is the ability to see life and the world the way God sees them.

Discover the book’s main themes, background, interpretations, and connections with the New Testament and the church today. Gain true wisdom, a deeper sense of who God is, and the ability to trust in God’s faithfulness.
You may know something about God and something about Jesus, but what do you know about the Holy Spirit? Too often, we seem to overlook the third Person of the Trinity, perhaps because we don’t know much about Him. He is not a magic genie, a flame of fire, or a vague feeling; he is our constant companion! Anne Graham Lotz will help us understand and appreciate the meaning behind seven of the titles given to this Third Person of the Trinity: Helper, Comforter, Advocate, Intercessor, Counselor, Strengthener, and Standby.
