Adult Spiritual Development - One Life…make it count
Our lives are really busy. We make time for whatever we value. So we think it’s important to make time to study about God and learn how He can impact your life. Choosing to participate in any of the following options will not only help you know God better but it will help you to meet others on the same road you are on. Life is meant to be a journey we take together. At Bear Creek, you will find men and women from every age, race and economic background seeking God and getting strengthened in their walk with Him.
You may be new, but you’re not alone.

New Believers Class: Knowing Jesus loves you and has a plan for your life is the perfect place to start. But, once you accept that love, you’ll want to learn what you believe and why you believe what you do. This is a great class for the new believer and provides an understanding of what it means to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. It’s also a great place to connect with others who are starting their new life in Christ.
Touching God in Prayer: Why is prayer so important? How should I prayer? What are the things I need to know about prayer? How can I know God will hear me when I pray? Join Dotti Cummins for this 13 week in-depth series that is guaranteed to change your life. Offered annually.
Financial Freedom: One of the main problems in our homes, our businesses, our marriages and our personal lives is finances. And because God knew that money would be such a serious issue, He spoke more about money in the Bible, than any other subject! It is therefore, important for us to learn the Scriptural principles God has given us to help us with our finances. Utilizing the Dave Ramsey Financial curriculum, our Financial Freedom Ministry can benefit everyone. Classes, small groups and personal certified budget counselors are all provided here at Bear Creek.
Small Groups: Hundreds of people call Bear Creek Church their church home. So how can you get connected in an intimate and personal way? Joining a small group is the answer. It’s a place where people share their lives, pray together, and receive encouragement. It’s here that the truth of the Bible gets put into action as people help each other apply Scriptural teaching to daily experience. Groups meet weekly in Stockton, Lodi, and Linden.
Men’s & Women’s Weekly Studies: Held throughout the week. These studies offer a great time not only to learn about the Bible and to grow in your faith but also a great place to meet other men and women and get connected.
