The Gospel of John: Believe and Live!

The Gospel of John is written to help people believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing, they would have life in His name.  (John 20:30-31)  At the same time, this Gospel isn't just for unbelievers.  "There may be no better book in the Bible to help you keep on trusting and treasuring Christ above all else!"  (John Piper)  Join our Growth Groups as we dive into the Sermon text from each week, as Pastor Brian Goodman preaches through the Gospel of John.

Should I be in a Growth Group?

Growth Groups are small groups (12-15 persons) that connect people to Jesus Christ and to each other, and help them to take the next step in their spiritual journey. In a Growth Group you'll be able to give and receive friendship, support, and practical help in following Jesus Christ, as well as learning how to serve others together. Everyone at Foothills should be actively involved in a Growth Group!

We know that can be a challenge when you have a lot of other commitments; but, we also know that participating in a Growth Group, like investing in your marriage, your kids, your home, or your education, will positively impact the rest of your life!
