ANCHORED:

Anchored Hope Groups are a ten-week, Bible study and small group.

Our flagship Hope Group study, Anchored is written to give Biblical hope and encouragement to the grieving heart. As you study topics such as God’s character, Heaven, and how to relate to others through the lens of grief, you will discover that God’s Word is not silent. He steps in to your brokenness and will give truth, hope, and comfort through Jesus Christ.

Anchored invites you to grieve honestly while it points you to God’s truth about your grief. With personal stories, seasoned insight, and gentle questions, you are invited to lay your deepest hurt at the foot of the cross and allow God to anchor your brokenness.

We encourage you to participate in an Anchored study first before the other ten-week studies (I AM, Identity, Sojourn, Carried).  If you have never joined us in a Hope Group session we recommend Anchored as the best place to start.

I AM:

I AM Hope Groups are a ten-week Bible study and small group.

What we believe about God is the most important and defining thing about us, and it has the greatest potential to shape our suffering.

Through the course of this study we will be looking at nine different aspects of God’s character, and how they affect our grief: His Name, Holiness, Sovereignty, Love, Faithfulness, Jealousy, Immutability, Goodness, Justice.

We recommend I AM for those who have already completed Anchored and are wanting to deepen their growth.

IDENTITY:

Identity Hope Groups are a ten-week Bible study and small group.

Loss can bring so many challenges, including a struggle to understand who we are after loss.  Identity explores how our grief intersects with nine biblical aspects of our identity in Christ, reminding us not only who we are but Whose we are.  

“When you have been marked by loss, it is easy to allow your pain to define who you think you are. But you are not defined by the sum of your joys or sorrows. Your identity is not about who you are or what you have done, but about Who you belong to.”

We recommend Identity for those who have already completed Anchored and are wanting to deepen their growth.

SOJOURN:

Sojourn Hope Groups are a ten-week Bible study and small group.

Sojourn utilizes the beautiful, eternal truths found in 1 Peter to draw our hearts toward heaven, our future home, and encourage us to live out our days on earth in faithfulness.

“For now, we can take heart in knowing that if we long to follow our babies to the place of their (and our) citizenship, it is only natural and right that we do. For this is not only a longing of our hearts, but a part of who we are because of Christ. Our Hope Babies remind us of our future home.”

We recommend this study for those who have already completed Anchored and are wanting to continue their growth.

CARRIED:

Carried Hope Groups are a ten-week Bible study and small group.

If you are pregnant again after the heartbreaking loss of a deeply loved and wanted baby, this study is for you. Carried gently walks with you through the sacred and vulnerable season of pregnancy after loss, using the words of the Lord’s Prayer to guide each week.

“Dear one, this season of your life affords great opportunities to learn how to lean into God and rest in His promises for you. Let us press into Him together as we seek to lay our burdens at His feet and choose daily to believe that He is enough through all the joys and sorrows of life.”

We recommend Carried for those who have already completed Anchored and are currently pregnant.
