groups at northridge

Life is better together.

Groups are our primary method for connecting people at Northridge. They are small, consistent, semester-based gatherings that allow participants to share, study, and support one another. Whatever your stage of life, we will connect you with people on a similar journey so that every conversation will be practical and helpful.

During the summer, most of our groups pause to give our leaders a season of rest and renewal. If you’re interested in joining a group or learning what options are available, we’d still love to hear from you and help you take your next step toward community.

Why groups?

At Northridge, we value relationships. We go farther and get there faster within the context of Christian community.

But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “today,” so that none of you may be hardened by sin’s deceitfulness. Hebrews 3:13 NIV

COMMUNITY GROUPS

Community Groups are where relationships grow as we share meals, stories, and life together. These smaller gatherings meet regularly in homes, throughout the community, or at the church, creating safe spaces to belong, care for one another, and help each person take their next step closer to Jesus.

BIBLE STUDY GROUPS

Dive deep into Scripture to help you know God’s Word and discover how it shapes your life. In these welcoming groups, people gather to learn, ask questions, and help one another take their next step closer to Jesus.

COLLEGE-AGED COMMUNITY GROUPS

College Community Groups connect students with caring adults who pour into and walk with them through life's questions and challenges. It's a space to belong, grow in faith, and discover your next step closer to Jesus.

SHARE YOUR STORY

Our group has increasingly become closer and through sharing of our stories and lives. We’ve become family. We enjoy the praises together and support each other through the trials of life.

When we first came to this big church it was hard to get to know people, but joining our group and starting to serve…helped us get involved and to feel at home.

I’ve found a place where I feel truly seen, heard, and valued. These women have become people I can lean on—whether I’m celebrating something or walking through something hard. I’m just so thankful for the way God has used this group to grow my faith and surround me with real, loving community.

Our group has truly become like family to us.

What’s felt especially life-giving to me is the way we’ve worshipped and connected in so many different ways. Sometimes it’s Bible study, sometimes it’s crafts, service projects, prayer walks, or just grabbing coffee and celebrating life together. No matter what we’re doing, there’s this consistent thread of honest connection, vulnerability, and joy. We’ve laughed together, cried together, and supported each other through so much.

We turn to each other for support instead of running to the world when we struggle… our group loves and supports without judgment but also offers Godly guidance and advice.

This group has become such a life-giving part of my weekly rhythm. It fills my cup in ways that few other things do, and I honestly can’t imagine stepping away from it. It’s not just a routine—it’s a spiritual anchor and a community I deeply value.
