Cultivating authentic, vulnerable, and diverse spaces for connection and transformation.

Wednesdays @ 6 pm start with food, April 3 - May 15

In this small group we will read Dallas Willard’s book The Great Omission: Reclaiming Jesus’ Essential Teachings on Discipleship. This book will help us become better apprentices of Jesus (disciples), and explore the power of spiritual practices to help us do what is impossible on our own: become more like Jesus. Participants will finish by creating their own Rule of Life with practices such as solitude, service, frugality, etc. that will help you take your next steps in the way of Jesus.

Led by Ken Jennings and Nick Burdette. Contact nburdette@gmail.com to sign up or learn more.

Youth in grades 6 and up please join us for OD Youth Group after church. We'll eat pizza together, play a game, pray for each other and make some plans! Please bring your Bible. Youth group will be held every other week.

We will meet at the Burdette residence (847 Chislett Street, 3 minutes from church) until 1:30 pm. To get there, we will meet by the welcome table immediately after church and should be able to give rides to most youth. Parents, please plan to pick up your youth at 1:30 pm.

What: Open Door Youth Group

Time: after church until 1:30 pm

NEXT MOVIE: April 25th we'll plan to see the movie Civil War (trailer can be found here). We won't know the specifics of when & where until this weekend, but we plan to aim for a showing between 6 & 8 pm at one of the theaters near the East End (e.g., Waterworks, Row House, Waterfront, Manor, etc.).

This group aims to see a movie each month with time together after the viewing to discuss, with a specific focus on the theological elements of the film. We won't know the specifics of when & where until the week before, but we plan to aim for a showing between 6 & 8 pm at one of the theaters near the East End (e.g., Waterworks, Row House, Waterfront, Manor, etc.). Times, movie selection, and rating are subject to change based on what's available.

We probably haven't seen the movie yet, so please don't take this invitation as an Open Door endorsement of the film. We'll leave it up to parents to determine whether the movie is appropriate to bring children to.
