LIFE GROUPS
Find your people. Do life together.
Life Groups are ongoing communities where people build relationships, grow in their faith, care for one another, share meals, and live life together.
Life is Better Together
We believe following Jesus was never meant to be done alone.
Groups are where relationships grow deeper, faith becomes practical, and a big church begins to feel a whole lot smaller. Whether you're new to Redeemer or have been here for years, there's a place for you to connect.
There’s More Than One Way to Get Connected

STUDY CYCLES
Go deeper. Grow in your faith.
Study Cycles are shorter-term groups centered around a particular book, topic, or area of spiritual growth. They're a great option if you're looking for a defined starting and ending point.

MINISTRY GROUPS
Connect around a shared season or purpose.
These groups bring people together around common stages of life, interests, ministries, or opportunities to grow and serve.
Never Been in a Small Group?
You don't need to know the Bible inside and out. You don't need to pray out loud. And you don't need to have your life all together.
Groups look a little different depending on the people involved, but you can usually expect some combination of:
Hanging out and catching up Sharing a meal or snacks Studying Scripture or discussing what we're learning Talking honestly about life Praying for one another Finding opportunities to serve together
Come as you are. The goal isn't to impress anyone—it's to grow together.
Find a Life Group
Life groups are a vital ministry at Redeemer Alliance Church. It's where our community gathers in smaller groups that meets in homes, online, in any capacity to grow in their relationship with Jesus.
There are many groups that meet in different townships, in different capacities. But our desire is for you to find a place where you can grow in your relationship with Jesus and find a community that you can do life with!
If you have any questions, please email us at discipleship@redeemeralliance.org
Why Groups Matter
“This is where church became family.”
“We had been coming on Sundays for a while, but joining a Life Group changed everything. We went from recognizing faces to actually knowing people and being known. We’ve shared meals, prayed for each other, laughed a lot, and walked through real life together. It made Redeemer feel like home.” -Matt McBride
“I found a place where I could just be myself.”
“I came looking for a Bible study, but I found so much more than that. I’ve built friendships with women in different seasons of life who encourage me, pray for me, and point me back to Jesus. It’s become a place where I can be honest, grow in my faith, and know I’m not walking through life alone.” -Veronica Gould
“It gave me relationships I didn’t realize I needed.”
“It can be easy as a guy to show up on Sunday, say hello to a few people, and head home. Men’s Group gave me a chance to actually get to know other guys, talk honestly about life and faith, and challenge each other to be better husbands, dads, friends, and followers of Jesus.” -John Baldino
“The Bible started making sense in a new way.”
“I’ve read the Bible for years, but studying it alongside other people has helped me see things I would have missed on my own. I can ask questions, hear different perspectives, and learn how Scripture actually connects to my everyday life. I leave every time wanting to know God more.” -Chrissy Turner
“It was an easy way to take a next step.”
“I wanted to grow in my faith, but I wasn’t sure I was ready to commit to an ongoing group. A Study Cycle was perfect. We focused on one topic for a set amount of time, I met some great people, and I grew a lot along the way. It gave me an easy place to start.” -TJ Grunza
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to be a member of Redeemer? No. You don't have to be a member to join a group. If you're exploring Redeemer or simply looking for Christian community, we'd love to help you find a place to connect.
How often do groups meet? It depends on the group. Many meet weekly or every other week, while Study Cycles may follow a specific schedule.
What if I don't know much about the Bible? That's completely okay. Groups aren't for people who have everything figured out. They're places where we learn and grow together.
Can I try a group before committing? Absolutely. Visit a group and see if it's a good fit.
Can I bring my kids? Childcare and children's arrangements vary by group. Each group's listing should tell you what to expect.
What if I can't find a group that works for me? Reach out to us. We'd love to help you find a connection or let you know about groups that may be forming soon.
