EXPLORE IN A GROUP

We highly recommend the Encounter group for anyone wrestling with these questions: "Who is this man Jesus?" and "What does He want from me?" In this class we receive an up-close and personal introduction to Jesus directly from the Bible through a study of the Gospel of John. Encounter offers a welcoming environment where you'll sit at a table with a small group of people, listening to teaching and discussing your questions with a table leader and others.

EXPLORE WITH A GUIDE

Not everyone feels comfortable in a group, maybe you feel more comfortable in a one-on-one setting. We would love to sit down with you and hear the questions you might have about what it looks like to have faith in Jesus. We can also help you navigate what your next step might be.

EXPLORE BY YOURSELF

At Blue Ridge one of our core values is relationship, but sometimes you just want to do some initial digging on your own. We want to provide a resource that might start you on your faith exploration.
