ROOTED

The ROOTED Experience AT JOURNEY

Do you believe God has uniquely created you with a purpose and plan? What if you heard God speak and you felt the love of Jesus in a profound way? Imagine yourself in a community of people who cared for you, listened to you and supported you while you discovered the answers to these questions and more. Rooted is a catalyst for life change where discussion is held in a small group setting, creating a safe space to ask questions, explore the Bible and experience prayer, service and celebration as a group.
Rooted is a powerful 10-week journey for anyone no matter where you are on your walk God. It is for those who have been walking with God for a long time,   just getting started in faith, or are curious about who God is. Through the 5 daily reflections and weekly group discussions, you will discover what it means to be a believer and how to live that out.
We truly believe that we are better together! Here at Journey hundreds and hundreds of people have gone through the Rooted experience. The stories of lives changed through Rooted has been incredible!
