With it being one of our Core Values, we believe that “Community” in LifeGroups at VNC is a great way to get connected with other believers, grow in your faith, and experience true community (celebrating together, grieving together, and growing in Christ together). Our groups strive to help people Know Jesus more, Love Jesus more, and Obey Jesus more, as we become fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ. If you’d like to be a part of a LifeGroup, or lead one, please click the button below and let us know.

Would like to take the next steps on your faith journey? We'd love to walk that out with you through our Believer's Path. Class information will be shared here and will be available at Guest Central and the Information Center as well. We can't wait to see all God will do through you as you lean into walking with Him more closely!

It may be difficult for you to make sense of the loss of a spouse, parent, friend or family member. If you find yourself in this situation, this may be the group for you! GriefShare is a 13-week class designed to help you navigate the feelings of loss with others who find themselves in the same place. We will have in-person sessions on Wednesdays at VNC in room 1403 (please enter at door 6). Workbooks are included in the registration fee; however, scholarships are available if needed!

Have you ever closed your Bible and thought, What did I just read? Or maybe you have tried to read through the Bible in a year, but quit when it felt confusing or impersonal. The Bible Recap is here to help. Tara-Leigh Cobble, host of the popular Bible Recap podcast, walks readers through a one-year chronological Bible reading plan and explains each day's passage in an easy-to-understand way.

Emphasizing how God's character can be seen throughout Scripture, the recaps are simple and short yet deep enough to help you understand the hard parts and press into knowing God better. The Bible Recap will not only help you understand the entire narrative of the Bible, it will fortify your faith. Join our Bible Recap group as we read the Bible in a year through this chronological reading plan!

Leaders: Carla Hawkins & Cindy Godby

Join us on Wednesday mornings for this ongoing women’s Bible study as we walk through Sermon on the Mount by Jen Wilkin. What if we navigated these three chapters in Matthew as they were originally heard? What if we read them as one cohesive, well-ordered message, intended to challenge us to think differently about what it means to be a follower of Jesus? This 9-session study will give you the opportunity to do just that.  Workbooks can be purchased for $20 at the VNC Shop.
