What Are K-Groups
In spring of 2022, Todd and Scott introduced a plan for a new meeting format called K-Groups. (To hear what they had to say, watch the sermon here.) These K-Groups will be weekly, in-home small groups and will serve as the replacement for Sunday and Wednesday night services for the next three months. The fall semester will run from Labor Day to Thanksgiving.
All groups have a date and time each week to meet and a different study topic. For example, Ken and Brenda Sauls will meet Sunday Evenings at 5:30 pm in their home and study, “Letters From Heaven.” Currently, we will offer five of these home groups with the hope that everyone can find a time that fits their schedule and a study that piques their interest. Below you’ll find a list and short description of each K-Group offered during this fall semester. Please read about each group and sign up for the one that best suits your interests and schedule.
We would love for everyone to participate in K-Groups and believe this is an important direction for Kingsway. These weekly groups are informal and casual. You can ask questions, discuss things you are curious about, and grow together into the life God has designed for you. We challenge you to give it a try. We believe everyone at Kingsway will enjoy K-Groups and look forward to the next semester of groups.
Take a look at the list below to find the leader, host home, meeting time, and topic of study of each group, and make the choice that works best for you. There is a sign-up sheet online as well in the vestibule at church. Feel free to contact the leader of the group(s) you are interested in to have your questions answered or to express interest.
We can’t wait to see you at K-Groups!
An Overview OF EACH GROUP
Leader: Ken Sauls
Date and Time: Sundays at 5:30
Location: The Sauls Home
Study Topic: Letters From Heaven
This group will be working through the book “Letters From Heaven.” Have you ever wondered where heaven is? What you’ll be like in heaven? What you’ll do? Letters from Heaven is the fictional correspondence between someone in heaven and someone on earth and is a glimpse into what life in heaven might be like. If you’re struggling with questions about heaven, dealing with the loss of a loved one, or looking for encouragement for living on earth, Letters from Heaven will lift your spirit and increase your desire to spend eternity with God.
Leader: Todd Freeman
Date and Time: Tuesdays at 6:00
Location: The Weiss Home
Study Topic: Prayers for Prodigals
Is there a prodigal in your life? One of the few places we use the word prodigal today is when we talk about the Prodigal Son. He ran away from home and broke his father’s heart. We will be looking at 90 Prayers For Prodigals from a broken father who fervently prays for his Prodigal child. Maybe for you, the prodigal is a sibling, a friend, or another relative. Regardless of the connection, we want those we love to love the one who unconditionally loves us.

Study Topic: The Book of Colossians
This group will spend the fall semester studying Paul’s letter to the Colossians. The brief book of Colossians is all about who we are in Christ. In the first two chapters, Paul teaches the Colossians who they are in Christ; in the last two chapters, he instructs them on how to walk in Christ. Paul emphasizes the mind throughout the book—the better the Colossians know what they believe, the harder it will be for someone to persuade them otherwise.
Leader: David Sizemore
Date and Time: Mondays at 6:30
Location: Kingsway Sanctuary
Study Topic: Prayer
This group will study the topic of prayer. Why do we pray? How should we pray? What things should we pray for? In addition to the study, this group will spend time each week in prayer together.
