Connect Groups
At New Hope Rising, Connect Groups are at the heart of our church—creating space for connection, growth, and building relationships. We’re passionate about fulfilling the Great Commission by winning souls and making disciples.
Beginning Wednesday, May 7, we will be studying The Awe of God by John Bevere for six weeks. We also are continuing to read through the Bible using our S.O.A.P.S (Scripture, Observation, Application and Prayer) format. See below for more information on the Life Journal.
Group Leaders
Connect Group leaders open their homes to church members, friends, and neighbors. A strong sense of community develops within these groups as they study, understand, and learn to trust
the word of God, as well as support one another in daily life.
