LIFE Groups

Get Connected in Life Group!

At Glen Meadows, we believe it is possible for our church to grow smaller at the same time that it is growing larger.  This is accomplished through our Life Groups.

Life Groups serve the purpose of connecting adults in authentic relationships with Christ, His Word, and other adults. In addition, Life Groups help adults mature in their relationship with Christ, no matter where they are in the discipleship process.  To achieve these purposes, our Life Groups are designed with the following characteristics:

  • A place where meaningful relationships can be developed, and struggles in our personal journeys can be shared with genuine friends.
  • Bible study, life application, and authentic fellowship.
  • To mobilize believers to positively impact the church body and their circle of influence through outreach, service, and ministry.
  • Monthly Parent’s Night Out and Life Group Party Nights.



Glen Meadows offers Life Groups to virtually every age and walk of life.  If you have any questions about which one might be right for you, please call the church office at 942-6601 and we’ll be happy to help you get connected.

The Journey - Couples 20’s-40’s

This Life Group is all about the “journey” of walking with Christ. Life is an adventure filled with twists, turns, ups, down, trials and victories and we cannot make it through without a lot of help. We find that help in two ways. First and foremost, we look to God by looking at His Word and studying it together. Second, we look to one another for friendship and encouragement as we walk through the adventure of life together. We meet at 11:15 a.m. in room E-106. The Journey Life Group is geared for couples in their 20’s to 40’s, but anyone is welcome.

Genesis - New/Young Marrieds

Genesis is a Life Group designed for couples that are “in the beginning” of their relationship: Whether you’re nearly married or newly married.  We will look at what the Bible says about marriage and how to stay together once you have tied the knot.  We will study ways to draw closer to God as you draw closer to each other.  Genesis is a great way to meet other couples that are “in the beginning” too. We offer monthly fellowships that are cheap and fun. (11:15 AM)
