Get a Grip Classes
Would you like to really learn the basics of God's Word? Get a grip on the basics of your faith?
In the same way that physical laws - like the law of gravity, the law of thermodynamics and other laws - govern the natural world; God has set in motion spiritual laws that govern our relationship with Him and our experience (or lack of experience) in living the dynamic, victorious Christian life.
In our "Get a Grip" classes, we get into the Word of God to discover the basics of our faith and the spiritual laws God has established.
Get a Grip Classes are foundational at Valley Family Church, and are a great way for you to get started, meet people and grow in your faith. View the classes and time offerings below.
