The Promise Principle | Mary Jo & Kate Seaton

Eagan

Wednesday at 6:30 AM • Virtual

Start your morning out with the Lord in this virtual women's group (pajamas, no make up and coffee/tea/chai encouraged!). This is a "join at anytime" group and we will be following the same reading plan as the men's Promise Principle groups, reading a chapter a week, diving deep into God's Word, and have the joy and blessings of fellowship with other women. Living a life with Christ is a lifelong journey. In His Word, the Bible, God gave us the perfect manual to get to know Him and learn to navigate this life He has given us. So, no matter where you are in your walk with the Lord, you will get encouragement from His Word and other women to help you take your journey deeper with Jesus.

Explore | Eagan | Fall 2024

Eagan

Monday at 6:30 PM

You may hear us say the phrase “Our Heart is Global” often throughout your time at River Valley, but what does it really mean? In Explore, we walk through the great commission that Jesus gave to his followers before He left this earth. Our mandate is to make disciples from every part of the world. Each and every one of us has a part to play in that, whether it is to pray, to mobilize others, to send or to go! This group is for everyone to discover how God wants to use them to accomplish His great commission. We meet from 6:30pm - 8pm. We start September 9th & childcare is included.

The Promise Principle | Larry Johnson & Taylor Anderson

Eagan

Tuesday at 6:30 PM

You are welcome here! This is a "join at any time" men's group. If you are looking for a deeper connection with God, this group is for you. God desires that we overcome being ruled by our thoughts and feelings, which are highly influenced by our circumstances — family, work, health, or temptation. 2 Peter 1:3–4 tells us that we can actually do this! It comes from learning to respond to God's promises in His Word and through prayer. This is the purpose of The Promise Principle Men's Small Groups. Whether you’re still exploring faith in Christ, or you have been a Christian for many years, you’ll experience what we believe Jesus meant when He called His disciples to change the world by discovering and responding to His promises, truths, and commands.
