Through a variety of contexts you can connect with other people in order to take the next step in your relationship with God. You’ll find this page to be like a road map to ministries for adults at Bethel.
We’ve created several paths for people to connect through Life Groups, mid-sized groups like Men’s Fraternity, Core Classes, Women’s Bible studies, and a variety of classes or community groups. In all of these, our desire is that you find a place to connect through Bethel Church where you can grow in your faith and become a multiplying follower of Jesus.
Browse through our different ministries available on our website and if you have any questions or can’t find what you are looking for, contact Pastor Craig Johnson.
Adults
One of our goals at Bethel Church is to help people to grow in their faith through community. We understand that people are committed to many things and approach learning and community in different ways so we have several ways for you to engage at whatever level you are comfortable and willing to commit to. Please check out the various ways you can join with men AND women to grow, learn, and share with others through the Bethel Church family.
Core Classes are mid-size (10-30) classes that meet throughout the week. Some are on Sunday mornings and some are on Wednesday nights. Every now and then we’ll throw one in at a different time too. These Core Classes provide a context to make friends, learn together, and serve. This is a great way to get started in a group environment at Bethel and start to make connections.

Life Groups are small groups of people from Bethel Church who meet regularly to share, study, serve and support one another. These groups often meet in someone’s home, but occasionally at Bethel as well. Most groups meet during the school year (September-May) and study a wide variety of topics.

Making Disciples: D-Group Informational Meeting
There is something special about gathering with two or three others who are committed to becoming mature disciples. Jesus modeled this for us when he chose three men from his larger group of 12. Jesus spent time with regularly with Peter, James, and John with the intention that they would then pour Jesus into others. D-Groups are modeled around this group of three, and the clear intention of a D-Group is to help others to become more like Jesus. If you would like to learn more about how you can make disciples through your own D-Group, contact Pastor Craig Johnson.
Some groups are just for fun! We are happy to have a few groups for men and women who have a common interest and they like to get together for networking and/or fellowship.
Here’s a list of those that are for both men AND women
*We do have some that are men/women specific in the tabs below as well.
- Bethel Riders (motorcycles)
- FM Power Lunch (networking)
- Reading for Life (reading club)
Men
We desire to develop men into a culture of learners who are growing mature in mission (loving God, loving others, and serving the world) through transformational relationships.
Twice a week (Wednesdays and Fridays) we offer men an opportunity to come together around tables to dig into God’s Word. Through learning, interaction and discussion, (and breakfast at the Friday morning group!) men will find a great environment to get to know others as together we grow in following Jesus, being changed by Jesus, and being committed to the mission of Jesus. Feel free to join anytime! Check out our current class list here.
Women
Bethel Women's Ministry aspires to be a grace-filled community of women known for making disciples who love God passionately, love others intentionally, and serve the world sacrificially. Here are some of the ways women at Bethel and in our community can connect.
