Small Groups

Fairfax Circle isn’t about buildings or sermons or songs. It’s about people.

Our small groups are where people become each other’s community and family. They're there to help pick you up when you’re down and inspire you to grow as a person and grow closer to God. A small group is a weekly gathering of people who meet in a home to study the Bible, pray and share one another’s experiences.

All of our small groups will meet either in-person or online this semester using the Zoom platform.

 

Winter Small groups are in session!

If you have any questions about any of our small group options please email us! 

Catching Whimsy

Fairfax City Area
In-person and virtual
Fridays - in-person 6:30pm; online 7:15 pm
Facilitator/Hosts:  Max and Carolyn Inman

Each week we’ll discuss one of the topics in Bob Goff’s devotional book, “Catching Whimsy, 365 Days of Possibility.” In his introduction Bob says, “In the past few years, the idea of catching something has gotten a well-deserved bad rap. I want to reclaim the phrase and suggest that some things, like whimsy and wonder and passion and the ability to give and receive extravagant love, are worth catching.” Join us as we try to catch something.   (It’s not necessary to have the book.)

Loving People Who are Hard to Love

On campus
Wednesdays at 12:15 – 2:00pm (Bring your own lunch)
Facilitator: Jaimie Lindley

“Transforming your world by learning to love unconditionally.  With God's help, you can turn prickly interactions into pleasant ones and bring peace that puts out the fires of strife when arguments flare.  You don't have to live under a cloud of intimidation or dread dealing with people, whether they are acquaintances or those closest to you.” 

This is a women’s group of varying ages.

In A Million Little Miracles, New York Times bestselling author Mark Batterson reveals three miraculous truths that awaken us to carpe wonder for the Creator and His creation:

1. God Is Bigger Than We Think—we can rest in His wisdom and strength

2. God Is Closer Than We Realize—we never have to do life alone

3. God Is Better Than We Imagine—we can reclaim our childlike wonder

We will look at these through video and recommended podcasts.
