  • This summer, we’re inviting all of our existing groups to journey together through Steps: A Guide to Transforming Your Life When Willpower Isn’t Enough by John Ortberg. It’s a grace-filled, honest look at how real transformation happens—and we believe it’s a timely guide for all of us.
  • Not connected to a group yet? We’d love for you to join our evening book discussions. These gatherings will be open to all and a great entry point into meaningful community.

Join or Co-Lead a Group!

  • Transformation doesn’t happen in isolation. God designed us for community, and sharing the journey with friends is one of the richest parts of church life. Find your people in an existing group at Christ Church, or help start one of your own. There are groups for men or couples, mixed co-ed groups and more.
  • Email Peter Celauro at pcelauro@ChristChurch.us to get started.
