Groups are the key way to get connected and grow spiritually at Broadway. Four semesters a year, you have the opportunity to participate in a short-term group experience called Growth Groups. We also have several ongoing groups that meet weekly and monthly. Not sure where to start or what your next step should be? Use the info below to guide you.

“The Bible Tells Me So…” by Peter Enns
“The Bible Tells Me So…” by Peter Enns is a book that asks helpful questions from his personal journey about the Bible and the historical doctrines that have traditionally guided the understanding of scripture. A Professor of Biblical Studies, Enns offers a safe space and dialogue to explore these questions.
Led by Pastor Joe and Jason Herron
4 Week Book Discussion on Mondays at 7pm
“Reclaiming Our Words” Co-Ed Pathway Style Group
Words are our bridge to understanding each other, the glue that holds community together. However, over time, the meaning of a word can either be watered down or over-blown. What do we mean when we say words like love, salvation, sin, faith, biblical, truth, and freedom? What might we need to unlearn about them, and what might we need to reclaim?
Led by Wendell and Robbie Van Valin
8 Weeks Launching March 9 Meets Thursday at 6 pm at the Greenwood Campus Fellowship House
Knit2Pray2
Knit2Pray2 (K2P2) gathers knitters, crocheters, and other makers to craft prayer shawls that will be gifted to congregants in need of a tangible reminder of God’s loving kindness. For those who like to craft (or who like to hang out with those who do); all people of all skill levels are welcome; a light snack will be provided. In loving memory of our friend Nancy Ramey. ç

The GAP
Your story, your family, and your faith are valued here. We stand in The GAP together. The GAP invites parents and guardians of LGBTQ youth to come together to share stories, support each other, and work to explore how we can love and support our loved ones and live out our faith. This is a confidential space where it is understood that we have an array of feelings and understandings of Scripture and faith, and what it looks like to live that out. We focus on two things: love of God and loving our families well. Contact Amy Jarboe for more information at AJarboe@BroadwayUnited.org.
