Have you ever wanted to really dig into one of the greatest letters ever written? Romans has shaped the faith of believers for two thousand years — and this ten-week group is your invitation to explore it together.

Week by week we'll work through Romans 1–7 alongside each other. We'll wrestle with big questions — Why do we need the gospel? What does it actually mean to be justified by faith? How does grace change the way we live? — and we'll do it in community, with honesty, and with plenty of room for your questions.

No prior Bible study experience needed. Just come curious and ready to go deeper.

Why Life Groups?

At Good Shepherd, our mission is to help everyone grow in a Christ-centered life as part of God's family. We believe this happens when we focus UP on God through worship, IN by building community, and OUT by serving the world. Life Groups help us grow in community by studying God's Word and sharing life together.

If you're interested, contact Pastor Janae, and we’ll find a group that’s a good fit for you!
