Small Groups

We gather together to pray, study the Bible, and build community.
These small groups meet throughout the week during the academic year.

Our format for small group studies is to use the COMA method of Bible study. COMA stands for Context, Observation, Meaning, and Application. Handouts for the COMA method are available below. But, for this semester, you only need the handout for the epistles (letters) of the New Testament. Here’s the handout (PDF, or Google Doc). We’re going to be studying the book of James. You should also take some time to watch this 9-minute video Overview: James:  

Here’s our outline for the book of James.

Week 1 = 1:1-8
Week 2 = 1:9-18
Week 3 = 1:19-27
Week 4 = 2:1-13
