Monday Night Men’s Group
Discipling Brothers to Serve Others
Who We Are
Guys of all ages coming together on a regular basis to learn more about God’s story and how it impacts our lives. We seek to study and grow together, join in fellowship, minister to one another and support our church family and the community in which we live through service.
What We Do
We meet every Monday evening in Fellowship Hall and on-line. We hear testimonies and teachings in a large group setting (around 60 in-person and 20 on-line), then break into small groups for discussion and prayer. Pizza and popcorn are served for dinner each week so you can come straight from work if you need to. There is no homework, and you can join any week.
Meeting Time: 7:00-8:30 PM on Mondays
Dates: The group meets weekly from September through June, starting September 16
Location: Fellowship Hall and simultaneously online (contact a Robert Austell for the link)
Group Leaders: Pastor Robert Austell and church members, Ted Davies & David Steiner
Fall Teaching Series: “Rules to Live By” (the 10 Commandments) with Rev. Dr. Robert Austell, Pastor for Adult Discipleship
Sep 16 – Nov 25; Pastor Robert will teach this fall on the 10 Commandments, using Psalms, Jesus’ teaching, and one of the confessions of the church to explore these “rules to live by” that God gave His people. We will not only look at what is prohibited, but what is positively commanded, and what that looks like in the heart as well as in daily life. Combined with personal testimony and small group discussion and accountability, Monday nights are a real opportunity for blessing, encouragement, and growth!
Who Should Come?
Guys of all ages attend (from 20-95 years old last year); Guys from all walks of life; Guys at all stages of their faith journey – from new believers to lay leaders. Some guys are with us every Monday night in person, and others join when they can. Some can’t get to the church on Monday or don’t live in the area, so they join us on-line.
How to Join: If you are new to the group, you can show up any week and be welcomed. Signing up is not necessary, though the leaders will appreciate the opportunity to connect with you ahead of time if you fill out the form below.
