growth track
Becoming like Jesus takes intention; it takes knowledge, commitment, discipline, community and practice. It is our hope that everyone, at some point, ventures through our six-part curriculum based growth group and be so inspired that by the end they'll start again while taking a group of friends through it too.
starting point
Faith has a starting point. Whether you started years ago or you're still investigating, this is a perfect place to know Jesus more and understand the basics of the Christian faith.

a story about a story, part 1
The Bible is a confusing book. Most people that have tried to start it have failed to finish it. And many that have finished failed to understand it. Story is meant to give you tools to read the Bible, help you understand the narrative, the themes and ultimately help you meet Jesus from beginning to end and to know what God accomplished, and will finish, in Jesus Christ.
Part 1 focuses on the foundations of the story and will take us through Genesis 1 - 22.

the way
Now that you've started and are on your way, learn what it means to follow Jesus. "The Way" was what Christianity was called before there were "Christians." What does it mean to be a follower of Jesus and how do we do it?
the practice
Disciplines like prayer, reading the bible, evangelism, and mentoring as well as seeing God at work and balanced relationships are all important to following Jesus. This is where it get's practical. This is where our hands get dirty.
other learning communities
discover your design
Have you ever wondered how God designed you and for what purpose? In this 6 week course we will Discover God's purpose for our unique Design, looking at what God has to say, exploring our personality through different assessments, examining our passions and our fears through discussion, and looking at the unique gifts God has given to us as His children and where we can use those gifts to bridge into our community and at Restoration Church.
what happy couples know
Why do other couples seem to have it all together? Are there really principles that make for a happy marriage? Come and find out! This isn’t therapy or counseling. It’s an opportunity for you and your spouse to sit down over a meal at a private table, listen to some content and discuss what you’ve learned. The content is from a marriage series given by Andy Stanley from North Point Community Church in Atlanta.
This is a 4 week opportunity held each February from 5-6:30pm in Fellowship Hall. The cost is $100 but this includes catered dinner and the content!! If you have kids, we're offering childcare for $5 per night per child, including dinner for them).
