Carl and Christine moved to California from New Jersey in January 2024 and have been loving it! They have been married since 2018 and we have two boys, Logan and Emerson. Carl works in insights and analytics for Milton’s Craft Baking and Christine works in event marketing for a law firm. They enjoy the outdoors and try to go ‘hiking’, go to the beach, or the zoo as much as possible. They started attending North Coast in 2024 and while they’ve both led church groups independently at other churches, this will be their first time leading one together at North Coast Church. They have always enjoyed hosting people and are excited to be a part of a community centered on a love for Jesus. This group is looking to build friendships based on Christ. This is for parents that want to do life together; encourage one another, wrestle together with tough questions, point one another to Christ, serve, and pray with and for one another.

This "sermon-based" study will be based on the previous weekend's message and built on a "Lecture-Lab" model. Think of the weekend message as a lecture on Christian living, and the group as a lab where you get to roll up your sleeves to discuss how the message works in real life. Each week there will be a series of questions and scripture on the back of the sermon note sheet to study before the meeting. It will usually take 20 to 40 minutes per week to complete this homework.

Our group is a welcoming and inclusive space designed for believers at all stages of their walk with Christ. We aim to foster authentic relationships in a relaxed environment where people feel valued, supported, and encouraged to open up and be vulnerable. Together, we’ll explore God’s Word in a way that intellectually engages and challenges us, helping each member grow in their understanding and application of Scripture. Through meaningful discussions, prayer, and shared life experiences, we hope to create deep connections and offer support during both challenges and joys. With an atmosphere of fun and laughter, including icebreakers and games, we strive to break down barriers, build lasting friendships, and strengthen our bond as a group. Ultimately, this is a place where faith, fellowship, and joy come together as we grow closer to God and each other.
