​WEEKDAY GROUPS​

​

DEEP ROOTS | THE SHAPE OF GRACE: EXPLORING JOHN WESLEY'S SERMONS

Wednesdays, July 8 through September 2 | 7 to 8 p.m. | Room A117 | Led by Rev. Colton Castle

Step into the heart of John Wesley’s theology through the words that shaped a movement. Join the Deep Roots class for this 12-week exploration of Wesley’s sermons—not merely as historical artifacts, but as living texts that empower faith, holiness, grace, and a vibrant Christian life today. His clarity, urgency, and pastoral concern make his preaching both accessible and deeply challenging.

All are welcome! Whether you're new to Wesleyan theology or returning with fresh questions, this study will invite you into Wesley's vision of grace woven through salvation, sanctification, and practical holiness. Come ready to wrestle with big ideas, deepen your faith, and consider what it means to live as the “people called Methodists” in the world today.

WOMEN'S SUMMER BOOK CLUBS​

​​​

JOYFUL, ANYWAY BY KATE BOWLER

Wednesday, June 17 | 7 to 8:30 p.m. Bride's Room | Led by Lindsey Parker & Gretel Roberts

Honest and bracingly tender, Joyful, Anyway proves that experiencing joy does not depend on resolving everything that makes life difficult. Drawing on a decade of living with serious illness and a lifetime studying America’s obsession with progress, Kate Bowler shows why people so busy chasing happiness miss out on actual joy.​

WHAT GROWS IN WEARY LANDS: ON CHRISTIAN RESILIENCE BY TISH HARRISON WARREN

Wednesday, July 15 | 7 to 8:30 p.m. Bride's Room | Led by Lindsey Parker & Gretel Roberts

How do we cultivate faith that endures? Tish Harrison Warren shares a fresh vision for navigating burnout and weariness through ancient Christian practices—guiding us toward lives of resilience, renewal, and flourishing.  Warren draws from both her own season of exhaustion and the rich well of Christian tradition to discover the habits and mindsets that anchor us in times of doubt, difficulty, and spiritual dryness. She offers hope to those who feel like life is overwhelming, taxing, and disorienting.
