Rooted isn’t a study or a book.
It's an experience.

Rooted groups meet for 10-weeks to focus on important conversations about our faith and life. The goal is to help people find "their people" and deepen people's relationship with Jesus.

• You will learn and practice 7 rhythms essential to healthy relationships with Jesus and people.
• You will establish firm roots in the truth of God’s Word through personal study and then come together with others to discuss and practice what we are learning. 

**All of our current Life Groups will go through Rooted together this fall and do not need to register for a group. They can donate to Life Groups to cover the cost of materials for them and others here ($15/person). **

**The Tuesday morning Women's Bible Study will go through Rooted together.**

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I register and how much does it cost?

Once registration is open for the fall, click the button above and follow the steps. Rooted is free to all participants. If you wish to help cover the costs of materials, you can donate to Life Groups to cover the cost of materials for yourself and others here ($15/person). 

Where will my Rooted Group meet?

All of our in-person Rooted groups meet at one of our Tacoma Campus buildings and all of our online groups meet virtually on Microsoft Teams.

Is there childcare?

Childcare is available for children 0 yrs. – 5th grade during the Wednesday 5:00pm Rooted Groups only. Make sure you check "Childcare" in your registration so that we can best plan for your child(ren).

What if I cannot make a week or miss Week 1?

​We understand that Rooted is a large time commitment, but we believe it is worth it to invest in the entire process. If you know you are going to miss more than 3 meetings, we ask that you wait until the next session of Rooted. The 10 weeks are a cumulative experience, and so we ask that every participant commit to honor each other with being at every meeting.

Is there a group for Spanish speakers? 

Yes! There is a Spanish speaking group that will meet Wednesdays at 6:30-8:00pm.

How will my Rooted Group be chosen?

You will register for a Rooted Group based on your desired time: Sundays at 11:45am or Mondays at 6:30pm (online) or Wednesdays at 5:00pm or Wednesday at 6:30pm.

​A substantial amount of prayer and thoughtfulness will then go into creating groups which we think will provide the best experience for all people who attend. While we do our best to honor requests when possible, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to accommodate all friend or leader requests.

Is there an age limit or something for youth?

Yes. Rooted is an adult only curriculum (18 years+). However, our junior and senior high youth (Grades 6-12) will participate in their customized Rooted Groups this fall during Youth Life Groups on Wednesdays at 6:30pm-8:00pm. If you’re interested in Rooted for Students, contact our Youth Minister, Cary Hoff.

What's the difference between a Rooted Group and Life Groups?

A Rooted Group is a kind of seasonal group with a defined beginning and end. A Life Group is ongoing. At the end of your 10-week Rooted Group, we encourage you to be a part of a new Life Group.

When do I get my journal?

If you are in a current Life Group, you will receive your journal from your group leader.

If you registered for a new Rooted Group, you can pick your journal up in the church office anytime during the week. If you need to arrange a different pickup time, please contact our Ministry Assistant, Katie Bussard.
