Life Groups

Life Groups are the life-blood of Church of the King.  The eternal life that Jesus brings doesn't just kick in when we die.  It is designed to start right now!  Life Groups are small groups of community through which we pursue real life by taking time to share life.  There is no substitute for living a shared life.  Just think about the benefits.  When we share our joys, they double.  But when we share our burdens, they're cut in half.

Jesus' first churches followed the pattern of meeting in both large groups and small groups (Acts 2.46).  At Church of the King, we meet together weekly as a large group to experience God through worship and teaching.  But following Jesus also requires the encouragement, fellowship, and accountability that happens best within the context of a small group.  And that's where Life Groups come in.

While each Life Group is unique, they all exist to help us make three vital connections. 

  • We connect to God as disciples through Bible study and prayer
  • We connect to each other relationally through fellowship
  • We connect to our city through service and outreach

Below is a list of our current groups.  If you'd like more information on any of the groups, please .

Steve and Raina Swaggerty

Sundays @ 9.00 am

Room B2 at the Church

Join us as we study God's miracles of deliverance and provision, something He wants to do in the life of every person.  Later in the summer we will look at the great hymns of the Bible which call us to worship and exalt God and experience His powerful and refreshing presence.  Come before service and you'll be glad you did!  for more information.

Bill Hogan

Men's Bible Study

Mondays @ 7.00 am

Bill Hogan's office in Troy

Come join us for coffee and bagels as we begin our work week with the Word and power.  We will look at what is so amazing about God's grace and the life-changing power it holds for each of us.  In July we will begin focusing on God in the workplace.  How does He want to use you?  for more information.

Kay Shaw and Gwen Sullivan

Women

Wednesdays @ 7.00 pm

Downstairs at COTK

Life is a lot like laundry.  It piles up quickly and can get really stinky but it all comes out in the wash.  Can we talk?  Come and get together with other women for weekly fellowship, encouragement, and Bible study as we sort through priorities and balance our loads.  We will discover the difference between "doing it all" and "becoming all God created us to be."  for more information.

Keith Giacoma and Tal Sullivan

Men

Wednesdays @ 7.00 pm

Downstairs at COTK

The depth and complexity of Jesus shatter our simple mental frameworks.  He baffled proud scribes with his wisdom but was understood and loved by children.  He calmed a raging storm with a word but would not get himself down from the cross.  Join us as we spend the summer seeing and savoring Jesus Christ.  for more information.

Phil and Emily Gocke

Young Adults

Thursdays @ 7.00 pm

Southfield

Have you ever felt that religion is more restrictive than liberating?  Journey with us as we walk through the book of Galatians and discover what freedom in Christ really is.  for more information.

Joe and Elizabeth Foote

Thursdays @ 7.00 pm

Southfield

The book of Hebrews is dedicated to the fact that Jesus Christ is the only path to salvation and He is God's perfect and ultimate revelation.  What does it mean to follow Christ on a daily basis?  We will examine that issue as we read and discuss the book of Hebrews this summer.   for more information.
