Re:generation – A Path to New Life and Freedom in Christ
Re:generation is open to anyone who feels stuck or stagnant and desires to experience new life and freedom in Christ. We meet every Monday at 7 PM in the High School Room.
We believe that through Christ, healing and transformation are possible for everyone. We use a 12-step framework, grounded in biblical principles, to help individuals develop the spiritual habit of daily time with God. Through this process and within a supportive, authentic community, many have found freedom from struggles like substance abuse, codependency, pornography, eating disorders, depression, fear, emotional/physical abuse, anger, obsessive thoughts, same-sex attraction, and much more.
You are not alone. The journey begins with joining a Groundwork group, where participants build community and learn the spiritual discipline of daily time with God. Contact Michael Johnston for info about the next Groundwork schedule.

NOTE: Re:generation is not meeting these dates in 2026:

Your struggles can be overcome. God has something new for you. Come and your life will never be the same. By working through biblical steps within authentic community, you will find freedom and healing in Christ.

Stephen Ministry offers a proven and effective way to organize, equip, and supervise a team of congregation members—called Stephen Ministers—to provide high-quality, one-to-one, Christ-centered care to people in our church and the community experiencing life difficulties. If you are interested in connecting with a Stephen Minister, contact Michael Johnston, mjohnston@gracesnellville.com
Why the name Stephen?
In Acts 6, Stephen was among those chosen to provide caring ministry to those in need. Since Jesus’ time, caring ministry has been a hallmark of the Christian faith community.
Who are Stephen Ministers?
Stephen Ministers are members of your congregation trained to provide one-to-one, Christ-centered care. They have a compassionate heart for those who are hurting, and they’re equipped with caring ministry skills by your congregation’s Stephen Leaders. A Stephen Minister typically has one care receiver at a time and meets with that person once a week to listen, care, pray, encourage, and offer emotional and spiritual support.
In what types of situations do Stephen Ministers provide care?
Stephen Ministers provide care to individuals facing difficult times in life—grief, cancer, divorce, financial difficulties, hospitalization, chronic illness, job loss, disability, a spiritual crisis, or other life struggles.
Do Stephen Ministers care for people outside their congregation?
Yes. Stephen Ministers often provide care for people in the broader community, enhancing and expanding outreach in a powerful way.

Pastor of Care
Our mission in Care is equipping one another to follow Jesus well during hard times, and at points on the journey where intentional help is needed to move forward.
Jesus said, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30 (NIV)
When you need help, we are here to listen, pray, offer practical things like meals, and make sure you have the resources you need to find rest for your soul.
If you are having a medical procedure, need counseling, facing job loss, grieving the death of a loved one, experiencing divorce, struggling with addiction, feeling lonely, unable to leave home, or just need someone to talk to please let us know.
