Our Spring Growth Series offers small group Bible studies that run weekly from April into June. We have Monday evening, Wednesday morning and Saturday morning (Zoom) options to choose from. These groups are designed to deepen your faith, increase your understanding of the Bible, and create authentic community in a small group setting. Groups meet in classrooms at Spring Branch Community Church (first and third floor). The format is a little different from our other groups, as there is no large group gathering nor refreshments. We encourage you to bring your own snacks. Childcare is offered for free on Wednesday mornings.

In our Bibles, we have four Gospels describing Jesus’s time on earth: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The land of Israel—the place Jesus walked and taught during His earthly ministry—is often referred to as the “fifth Gospel.”
Follow Kristi McLelland through Israel as we study snapshots from the Gospel of Luke to see where the stories of the Bible took place. Over 7 sessions, challenge the way you read the accounts of Jesus through teaching videos that take you to locations in Israel like Bethlehem, the Sea of Galilee, Gethsemane, Jerusalem, and the road to Emmaus. Along the way, you'll see how Jesus, the Messiah, brought His kingdom to earth for everybody. 

The story of Jesus in the Gospels includes all kinds of interesting people—some who claimed to be saints but proved to be scoundrels, as well as scoundrels who were transformed into saints. Saints and Scoundrels in the Story of Jesus provides a fresh look into what shaped and motivated people such as John the Baptist, Peter, the Pharisees, Zacchaeus, Judas, Caiaphas, Barabbas, Stephen, and Paul. Each of their stories help us to see the generous grace of Jesus toward the worst of sinners more clearly.
