I encourage you to read through the most recent copy of our Community Groups list and we invite you to strongly consider joining one, if you have not done so already.
If you are a parent, please remember that it is very important to encourage your children to attend Community Groups. We have classes for all ages, ranging from bed babies to senior adults. Specifically for adults, we have classes for singles, coeds, couples, and men and women.
Within our Community Groups list, you will find names of teachers who are investing their lives for the Kingdom, going the second mile on a regular basis, and faithfully serving to provide meaningful Bible study and learning opportunities for you and people of all ages. You are welcome to visit a class where you can study the Word of God and meet new people! Longview Heights Baptist Church would be honored by your presence and I pray that God will lead you and your family to plant your lives in Kingdom building!

Lies Women Believe
DAY/TIME: Wednesdays, 6:20-7:30
FACILITATOR: Jennifer Walker
More Info
Satan is the master deceiver, and his lies are endless, quickly trapping us in fear, guilt, loneliness, ensnaring us by our past or by a desperate desire for approval. This 10-week study exposes the most common lies that Christian women believe–lies about God, sin, priorities, marriage, emotions, and more. Then we are shown how we can be set free to walk in God’s grace, forgiveness, and abundant life by wielding the most effective weapon we have to overcome Satan’s deceptions–God’s Truth. The truth may not change our circumstances, but it will definitely change us. Order from Amazon.com, LiesBooks.com, or Lifeway.com *You will need both the book and the workbook.

Trustworthy by Lysa TerKeurst
DAY/TIME: Sundays, 5:00-6:30
FACILITATOR: Arika Payne
More Info
When hard times come and it seems God is deviating from the plan we assume our life should follow, we’re much more likely to want to tame God, not trust Him. It’s then that we begin to press into our ways and our own timing. No human can carry the weight of being their own god, but so many of us try. In this 6-session study of 1 & 2 Kings, you can join Lysa TerKeurst in Israel as she honestly reveals the places of distrust in her own heart while exploring the deeply personal applicable Scripture that will teach us how to truly trust God.

Integrity by Rick Burgess
DAY/TIME: Wednesdays, 6:20-7:30 OR Sundays, 5:00-6:00
FACILITATORS: Wednesday- Dennis Wofford, Don Dowdy, René Jordan and Daniel Clark;
Sundays- Ben Mokry
More Info
To be a man of integrity is so much more than being a man who “doesn’t lie”. If we allow the definition of integrity to be oversimplified, we risk not becoming the man God desires for us to be. To be a man of integrity is to be a man who is “undivided”. He is a man who doesn’t follow one set of rules in one situation and another set in a different one. A man of integrity is a man who is consistent, steadfast, and true. The Pursuit: Integrity is a 5-week, video-driven study designed to help men live out a masculinity that is found in the person and example of Jesus.

“Who are you?” It’s one of the most important questions you can answer. But you can’t pursue Christ-centered masculinity without understanding who you are in Jesus. This, before anything else, is the key to becoming a man God intends you to be. Who are you? The key to answering this question is found in discovering who you are in Christ. The Pursuit: Identity is a 5-week, video-driven study designed to help men live out a masculinity that is found in the person and example of Jesus.
