During the 2025/26 season, Christ Church Men’s Ministry invites you to hit the field with Coach Jesus: learning, growing, and showing up for one another. Through small group conversations and real-life application, we’ll explore what it means to live with faith, courage, and integrity.

This Bible study group uses the Reading Between the Lines curriculum to add to our understanding of scripture and to practice reflecting theologically on topics that arise from cultural and literary inspirations. Reading Between the Lines is open to all adults and is a deep dive into the place where the Bible’s story and our stories intersect. Please contact Scottie Stamper with questions.

Every baptized person is called to ministry, but often we face the difficult and subtle task of interpreting the richness of the church’s faith in a complex and confusing world. Education for Ministry (EfM) is Bible study and theological reflection group designed to help participants deepen their faith and connect the study of scripture with their real lives.

This group, led by Virginia Anderson and Tere Ey, will meet Wednesday mornings from 9:30 – 11:30 am in M206.

If you are interested, please fill out the EfM interest form and an instructor will contact you soon.

All are welcome to join us for this calming, spirit-filled practice led by Joyce Cmiel. The class is slow flow in nature with attention to the breath and mindfulness. Contact Joyce at joycecmiel@aol.com for more information.
