Family Conversations

We believe that Jesus loves your whole family and wants you to connect in ways that are centered around him. Use this resource to have conversations centered around our weekly sermon or seasons and participate in practices that will draw you all closer to Him.



Follow Groups | Students

During our student ministry years we are helping students transition from family conversations to independent and peer relationships. This section focuses on their early communities in faith founded in peer relationships at The Loft.
