Adult Groups
Adult Bible Fellowships (ABFs) are Bible study classes that meet on Sunday mornings. An ABF is a great place to find community and to dig into God's Word. Each class meets weekly on Highland's campus.
Connection Groups (CGs) meet in homes throughout the Waco area on various nights of the week. These small groups emphasize the application of God's Word by providing an environment of community, prayer, mutual accountability, and encouragement.
Inductive Bible Studies are dedicated to the in-depth study of God's Word in the context of relationship. The 12-week Highland Inductive Studies are offered each fall and spring semester on Wednesday nights from 6:30-8pm. Women gather in the Chapel and men gather in the Fellowship Hall at round tables to build community and a large group teaching time. This fall we will be studying the book of Genesis.
Registration for the fall semester is now closed. Registration for the spring semester will open in November.
Soul Care Groups provide a safe, discreet, intentional, and compassionate environment for people who are struggling with sin and the effects of sin to seek healing. In these groups, men and women share their struggles with each other and with God, turning to Christ for strength and healing which is found through His Spirit and by His Word. Soul Care Groups meet on Thursdays, from 6:30-8pm.
Register for all Soul Care groups HERE.
The cost for materials is based on the class attended. Scholarships are available based on need. Childcare is available for $15 per family for the semester for kids through 5th grade.

Men's General Support seeks to encourage men in their faith by pointing them to the hope found in Christ, the healing and freedom found in living in the light, and the encouragement found in walking honestly in community and accountability with brothers in Christ.
Seen, Infertility and Miscarriage Support- John & Amy Neidig, Casey Hooper, Jennifer Durham
This group provides support, intentional community, and encouragement for women and couples walking through the grief and pain of infertility or miscarriages. Our desire is that couples know the nearness of God and experience His comfort and kindness in the midst of suffering. The structure will include a wives’ group and a husbands’ group, using the same curriculum. Once a month the two groups will meet together to hear from a panel of mentors to learn from their similar experiences. We will also include fellowship nights, creative ways to care for one another, and more. Any women or couples who are walking this difficult road are invited to join us this fall.
STEPS - JP & Katie Pizzio
STEPS is a semester-long intensive discipleship program that provides the structure and support for participants to deepen their relationship with God, by addressing unresolved issues from the past, uprooting sinful patterns of coping and practicing the basic principles of spiritual formation so that they can become whole, living as they were intended.
