SMALL GROUPS

At Evergreen, we believe our lives are meant to be experienced in a diverse community. Through one of the many Small Groups, we hope that you can find "your people" - the people you can call at 3am, and who know your story. 

Questions? Contact Assistant Pastor, Nathalia Corso, at [email protected].

  • THE AFTER PARTY

    Resources from The After Party help shift our political identity away from the "what” of political positions and towards the "how" being centered on Jesus. We start with political conflict in Jesus’ day, explore how we got here, and chart a path forward that redirects our focus away from short-term partisan victory and towards the lasting peace of God, in whom all things hold together. This group is for those who have read The After Party Book and want to go deeper into the content in a diverse community.

If you are not familiar with the S.O.A.P. model, no problem, we will learn it together!

    WOMEN'S STUDY

    ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

    A Study of Six Prayers in the Bible: When You Pray


    Do you have trouble thinking of words to say to God when you pray? Are you afraid some emotions are too intense to express to God? Do you reach the end of a day only to realize you haven’t prayed at all? You’re not alone. Prayer is the way we relate to God, but sometimes it’s a struggle. Throughout God’s Word, we encounter many voices who teach us how to pray.


    In this 8-session study, join with six beloved Bible teachers who will help you study prayers in the Bible that can inspire your own. You’ll learn that God welcomes your praise and lament, your thanksgiving and intercession. You’ll see examples of how to pray when you’re alone and when you’re gathered with others. Above all, you’ll notice there’s no one right way to pray. As you draw near to God through prayer, you’ll find your faith strengthened and your heart united to Christ.
