THE SMART STEPFAMILY

Tuesdays | 6PM

Join us for an eight-week journey through The Smart Stepfamily by stepfamily expert Ron Deal. Together, we’ll discover key steps to building a healthy, thriving family. Using Ron’s biblically based insights and practical solutions, we’ll learn how to navigate everyday challenges and grow stronger as a stepfamily.

We’ll meet at Dean and Nancy’s home, where we have a kid-friendly space nearby for those with little ones. Each week, we’ll share a simple meal before diving into meaningful conversations—because the best connections happen around the table!

Asimismo, presenta siete formas bíblicas y probadas en la práctica de abrirse paso a la vida revolucionaria que Cristo quiere que vivas.

SURRENDERED LEADERSHIP

Wednesdays | 6PM
March 5 – April 30

We are all called to steward the gifts and roles that God has given us. Leadership is no different. Good leaders recognize their influence and develop their character and skills to lead with intentionality. No matter what your role is (CEO, parent, group facilitator, business manager) you can either take charge of your leadership or let it take charge of you. Whether you live to lead or are led to lead, this group will help you and empower you on your journey to living surrendered as you lead yourself and lead others. Join us for 8 weeks as we discuss Jesus’ leadership and give you practical tools to equip you as you lead in your own context.

THE JOURNEY TO BIBLICAL RECOVERY

Thursdays | 6PM
February 6 – April 24

Recovery is something we all need. Whether it’s from anger, lust, selfishness, compulsiveness, codependency, or any other hurt, hang-up, or habit, we all face struggles that keep us from living in true freedom. Together, we’ll explore what biblical recovery looks like, using the Twelve Steps and Eight Principles as a foundation, paired with the scripture that breathes life into them. This is a 30,000-foot view of recovery—a journey to understand the process of finding freedom, healing, and hope in Christ. If you’ve ever felt stuck or wondered what it means to truly walk in freedom, this group is for you. This group isn’t limited to those with addictions—it’s for anyone seeking freedom and healing. Let’s walk this out together and discover how God’s truth transforms every area of our lives.

BIBLICAL ELDERSHIP

This study explores the biblical role of Eldership, focusing on the responsibilities within the body of Christ and the relationship with staff, specifically at Pine Hills Church (PHC). Whether you’re curious about the role of an Elder or considering serving in this capacity in the future, this class is for you.

We, the Elders of PHC, encourage everyone to attend. For those interested in future service as an Elder, we strongly recommend participating.

Join us on a journey toward meaningful relationship, transformation, and growth through marriage. Through stories, insights, and practical advice from the book, we will embark together on a journey of hope, deeper emotional intimacy, clearing out obstacles and past hurts, understanding our identity as a couple, and cultivating growth together where we can more clearly reflect God’s image in our marriages. The book The Deep-Rooted Marriage: Cultivating Intimacy, Healing, and Delight is written by therapists Dr Dan Allender and Dr Steve Call. Dan Allender is known for his work in bringing together theology and biblical psychology, as well as teaching and speaking around the world. He also has a podcast to address trauma, relationship, and healing of spiritual/emotional struggles. Steve Call is also an author, therapist, and has appeared on the Allender Center podcast. We (Brad and Natalie) will be acting as hosts and facilitators, not teachers, but fellow travelers on the road toward deepening marriages.

THE ESSENTIAL GUIDE TO PRAYER

Sundays | 9:30AM
February 2 – March 9

Pine Hills is looking to build a community of intercessors who are willing to pray on a regular basis during the Sunday service times. If you have a passion to pray or are looking to develop this spiritual practice alongside fellow believers, then join us starting this February!

Acts 2:42 tells us, “They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to PRAYER.” – Making prayer a priority is essential to the life of the believer. It allows us the opportunity to partner with God in order for His Kingdom to come here on earth as it is in heaven. Together we will read and discuss The Essential Guide to Prayer by Dutch Sheets in order to learn how to pray with power and effectiveness (Please purchase your book prior to our first meet date). Each Sunday we will apply these principles we learn in our reading by interceding together for our church body.

WHO I AM IN CHRIST

Mondays | 6PM
February 10 – March 24

Come learn about + step into your God-given identity + inheritance in Jesus Christ!

SPIRITUAL PRACTICE: SCRIPTURE

Tuesdays | 6:30PM
March 4 – March 25

Scripture is the primary way we are “transformed by the renewing of [our] mind” (Rom. 12:2). As we think God’s thoughts after Him, we begin to develop the “mind of Christ” (1 Cor. 2:16). We begin to see the world as He sees it, think how He thinks, and feel what He feels. There are all sorts of ways to read Scripture—slowly and prayerfully, all alone, out loud in community, in deep study, while sitting under preaching in church, through memorization, and more. All work together to fill, form, and free our minds. Join us for this four-week study as we dive into Scripture and incorporate it as a regular practice in our lives.

SPIRITUAL PRACTICE: FASTING

Tuesdays | 6:30PM
February 4 – February 25

For thousands of years, fasting was one of the central practices of the Way of Jesus. It was common practice for apprentices of Jesus to fast twice a week until sundown—on Wednesdays and Fridays, as well as the 40 days of Lent. Similar to essential spiritual disciplines like prayer or the reading of Scripture or church on Sunday, fasting was simply one of the things that practicing Christians did. And yet, very few followers of Jesus in the modern West fast at all. Join us for this four-week study where we will cover the four reasons we fast: to offer ourselves to Jesus, to grow in holiness, to amplify our prayers, and to stand with the poor. We recommend purchasing God’s Chosen Fast by Arthur Wallis to supplement our study together (https://a.co/d/bcVendw)

HABITS OF THE HOUSEHOLD

Tuesdays | 8:00PM
April 8 – April 29

Parenting happens in habits. We make meals, get in cars, answer questions, discipline, and do bedtime. We’ll explore how these ordinary routines are extraordinary opportunities to live out the love of God in profound ways. In this book we will find tools we need for parenting and discover spiritual meaning in otherwise mundane moments. As we establish new habits and intentional rhythms around everyday routines, we will find our families have a greater sense of peace and purpose as our homes become places where everyone learns how to love. Be sure to purchase Habits of the Household by Justin Whitmel Earley (https://a.co/d/dC6VtOh)

Together, we’ll explore His attributes, the Trinity, and what it means to know the God who is infinite, holy, and personal. This study isn’t just about gaining knowledge—it’s about transformation. As we learn more about who God is, we’ll challenge one another to grow in humility, faith, and strength as men of God in a world that needs courageous, godly leadership.
