Fall Connect Groups

🤝 Find Your Place to Connect This Fall

We all long for deeper connection — with God and with the people around us. This fall, Connect Groups are returning to Emmanuel Faith Community Church, and now is the perfect time to find your group!

Beginning September 13th, Connect Groups will gather throughout the fall alongside EFCC's new Honest to God sermon series. These sermon-based discussion groups are designed to help you build authentic relationships, share life together, and grow deeper in your faith.

Group sign-ups are happening now!


❓ Exploring the Questions Jesus Asked

Throughout the Gospels, Jesus asked more than 300 questions. He didn't ask because He needed information. His questions invited people to think, examine what was happening beneath the surface, and experience genuine transformation.

This fall's Honest to God series will explore some of Jesus' most soul-searching questions — and what they can reveal about our own hearts and relationship with God today.

Connect Groups give us the opportunity to take those Sunday conversations deeper. Together, we'll discuss what we're learning, wrestle with meaningful questions, encourage one another, and discover how Jesus continues to transform our lives.


📅 Fall Connect Group Details

🗓️ September 13 – November 4
📍 Emmanuel Faith Community Church

Wednesday evening groups meet during KidsClubs and student ministry programs, making it easier for the whole family to get connected at the same time.

Can't make Wednesdays? No problem! Connect Groups will also be available at other times throughout the week.


👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 There's a Place for Your Kids, Too!

Wednesday nights aren't just for adults! While you're connecting with your group, EFCC offers programs designed specifically for kids and students.

Programs are available for infants through 6th grade, Junior High, and High School students, giving your kids an opportunity to learn about Jesus, build friendships, and have fun while you're participating in your Connect Group.

KidsClubs for infants through 6th grade require pre-registration, so be sure to register your children when signing up for your group.


📖 Take the Conversation Home

EFCC has also created an Honest to God Study Guide to accompany the sermon series and Connect Group discussions.

Copies will be available in the Worship Center and Chapel lobbies on Sundays for a suggested donation of $10. The guide is designed to help you continue engaging with the questions and themes from the series throughout the week.


🙌 Don't Do Life Alone — Get Connected!

Whether you're brand new to Emmanuel Faith, have attended for years, or simply want to take another step toward deeper community, there's a place for you in a Connect Group.

You don't have to already know everyone. You don't have to have all the answers. Just come ready to connect, share life, and grow together.

Sign-ups are happening now, so find your place and join us this fall!

Follow Sermon Series - Emmanuel Faith Community Church

New 'Follow' Series

👣 Follow: A New Sermon Series at Emmanuel Faith

What does it really mean to follow Jesus?
Not just believe in Him — but walk with Him daily, grow alongside others, and live on mission in every part of life.

Our new sermon series, Follow, is an invitation into a deeper journey of discipleship — learning to follow Jesus in community and on mission. It’s rooted in Jesus’ simple, life-changing call: “Follow Me.”


📖 A Journey of Discipleship

At Emmanuel Faith, we define a disciple as someone who is following Jesus in community on mission. That’s the heart behind this series — not just gaining knowledge, but experiencing real transformation that shapes how we live, love, and relate to others.

This journey reflects the disciple DNA we hope to grow in every believer:

D – Daily time with God: creating space to be with Jesus.
N – Nurtured in community: growing alongside others.
A – Active on mission: joining Jesus in His work where we live, work, learn, and play.

Our prayer is that through this series you would encounter Jesus afresh, grow confident in your identity as His beloved, and experience lasting spiritual growth that overflows into every area of life. One of the best ways to live this out is by walking alongside others — learning, praying, and growing together in community.

🤝 Built for Community

This journey was never meant to be walked alone.

Discipleship isn’t a solo project — it flourishes in relationships. Whether through Connect Groups, friendships around the table, or conversations within our church family, we grow best when we walk together.

You’ll hear encouragement throughout this series to stay engaged, ask honest questions, and take intentional steps toward spiritual growth. The goal isn’t perfection — it’s progress. God is already at work in you, and He invites you to participate in what He’s doing.


🕊️ Make Room for God to Work

This series invites us into a slower, more intentional rhythm with Jesus — one marked by daily time with Him, consistent community, and a willingness to respond when He calls us to grow.

As we follow Jesus together, we believe the Holy Spirit meets ordinary people who make simple, consistent room for Him. We pray that you’ll experience fresh courage, renewed faith, and a deeper desire to reflect Christ in your homes, workplaces, schools, and neighborhoods.

Whether you’re new to church, new to faith, or have been following Jesus for years, this series is for you.
