We’re developing a new series of sermon-based Pulse Groups.  Discussion questions for each week’s sermon will be posted here, then members will get together during the week to talk about those questions, as well as any other thoughts they have on the sermon.   If you’re not able to be in church that Sunday,  or you want to listen again, we’ll have the sermons posted on YouTube and links will be posted here.

You’re welcome to join the groups at any time.

The videos will be hosted on our Facebook page, as well as the Lifeline Church YouTube channel,

Wednesdays at 6:00 – at Adam and Ashley Keith’s house, with Eddie Cook leading. Ashley Keith (334*301*5144)

Wednesdays at 6:00 – Daniel Autrey leads a group at his house. Daniel Autrey (334*210*8677)

Fridays at 6 – Google Meet meeting hosted by Beth Rogers (334*546*8312)
