• is a great way to find out more about our core values and foundational beliefs as a church. This 5 hour class is offered either as a Saturday Intensive from 9-2 or a series of five Sunday mornings. At the end of the course, you will be given the opportunity to join the Grace Covenant Family. This course is required for membership.

Members are also required to participate in 2 intensives aimed at equipping Christians for fruitful living and ministry:

• Life in the Spirit - Our life in God comes from the life in His Spirit. But are we led by the Spirit? The Spirit of God renews us, but He also empowers us for everyday life. Life in the Spirit is an opportunity to know the Spirit of God better — to hear Him better, manifest His gifts, and live an empowered life being in continual fellowship with Him.
• Life of Freedom - Fear. Depression. Failure. What if these were no longer factors in your life? “It is for liberty that Christ has set you free” — our promise and our purpose from Scripture. Life of Freedom will practically and spiritually address the issues that bind us and keep us from walking in the purchased freedom afforded us by Jesus Christ — getting free and staying free! Life of Freedom is designed to help you both realize and maximize those promises.
