The Family Discipleship Ministry seeks to foster strong families within the church through biblical training, encouragement, and accountability.
Objectives:
- To train every HBC family in biblical principles of family discipleship
- To continually multiply the number of Family Discipleship Groups within the church
- To help all HBC parents to disciple their children in Christ-likeness in heart and actions
- That our children would be a blessing to others, and would grow to disciple their own children in years to come even more effectively than we have discipled them
For more information about the Family Discipleship Ministry, please contact Pastor Alan Plumley.

Family Discipleship Groups
Small Groups provide an opportunity for families to study the Bible together and get more connected with other members of the Church body through fellowship and prayer. Small Groups meet in members’ homes on various nights of the week. Hope Bible Church has several small groups with some oriented toward families and others toward adults only. If you would like to join a small group or have any additional questions about small groups at Hope, please contact Pastor Gabe Powell.
Family Counseling
Hope Bible Church offers family counseling through the Hope Biblical Counseling Center. Biblical counselors are trained in the meaning and use of the Bible and biblical principles for counseling. We are committed to the position that Scripture provides the only authoritative guide for what we are to believe and how we are to live.
