Rooted

Connect with God, the church, and your purpose

Our next Rooted Session will begin January 2025. Please join our Waitlist at the link below.

Rooted is a 10-week small group experience designed to connect you to God, the church, and your purpose. Together, in a group of 10-15 people from all walks of life, you’ll explore the Bible, engage in prayer and serve experiences, share stories, and practice rhythms essential to a healthy spiritual life. Rooted is available 3 times a year, in January, April and September.

No matter where you are on your faith journey, Rooted is a solid next step.

    Each week guides you through five days of reading and reflection. Come each day expecting to learn more about yourself and God.

Frequently Asked Questions

Rooted is a 10-week discipleship program and a catalyst for life-change. It provokes questions and conversations and group experiences designed to give you a glimpse of your story in God’s story. Rooted will help you understand the rhythms of following Jesus whether you have been following him for decades or question whether he is even real.

This program includes five days of reading and reflection each week. There are three additional experiences that happen throughout the ten weeks as well:
  • A Prayer Experience around week three held in someone's home
  • A Serve Experience around weeks six and seven at one of our Community Partners. At the completion of Rooted, all current Rooted groups come together for a fun celebration that includes a meal, worship, and a message from one of our senior pastors.

Rooted groups launch three times throughout the year: January, April and September. Registration opens one month before each launch date. If we are currently in the middle of a Rooted semester, then we recommend you join the waiting list so you can receive the link to register before it goes live on the website.

Absolutely. Rooted is for everyone!

Registration is easy! Once registration is open for the upcoming session, just click on the link and select which day and time you want and follow the steps to register. The cost is $40 per person to go through the course. The cost covers your workbook, class materials, and a Rooted t-shirt.

You can register for childcare at the same time you register for Rooted. Childcare is available for children 0 yrs. – 5th grade at $50 per child, or a max of $100 per family for all 10 weeks. Once you are registered for Rooted, you will receive a confirmation email with a link to register for childcare.

You will meet on-site at our Frisco campus.

If registration is closed, please check back for the next Rooted session.

We understand that Rooted is a large time commitment, but we believe it is worth it to invest in the entire process. If you know you are going to miss more than 2 meetings, we ask that you wait until the next session of Rooted. The 10 weeks are a cumulative experience, and so we ask that every participant commit to honor each other with being at every meeting.

If you miss Week One, your leader will be in contact with you and you can still join your group. For the best Rooted experience, we recommend not missing more than 2 weeks. If your schedule requires you to miss more than two, feel free to jump in when the next Rooted session starts.

Our Rooted team will prayerfully place participants into groups of about 10-12 people. We group by age, marital status, and life stage. We form groups of married couples, singles (not co-ed), women, men, and young adults. These groups ultimately depend upon the demographic of those who registered. A substantial amount of prayer and thoughtfulness goes into creating groups which we think will provide the best experience for all people who attend. While we do our best to honor requests when possible, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to accommodate all friend or leader requests.

You are not required to participate in the Rooted experience. However, we believe Rooted is a catalyst for life change and growth in your relationship with God no matter where you are in your journey with him. Our hope is that everyone will want to make the decision to participate. Rooted is, however, a prerequisite for leadership at Mission and a step we desire everyone to take prior to joining an ongoing a Missional Community Group. We recommend you pray about when the time might be right for you. No rush, rooted is here to stay.

Yes. Rooted is an adult only curriculum (18 years+). However, there is a Youth curriculum called Rooted Essentials. If you’re interested in Rooted for High School students, contact our Youth Pastor, Isaac, by email.

Our desire is that your Rooted group will transition into a Missional Community Group at the end of the ten weeks. We strongly encourage everyone to go through Rooted before joining an open Missional Community.
