Biblical Principles Applied to Practical Problems
- How do I handle this stressful work situation in a Godly way?
- What’s the best way for me to discipline my children, yet still make sure they know I love them?
- How can I get a better job?
- What can I do to manage my finances better?
If you’ve ever asked yourself one of these questions,
Solid Ground is for you!
Solid Ground applies Biblical principles to practical problems so that individuals are empowered to live productive, fulfilled, and abundant lives. This happens in interactive workshops, and one-on-one relationships with Life Coaches who are available to help participants work toward specific goals outside of the workshop hours.

Life Coaches
Ever wish you had a coach for life? Now you can. Participants can also be matched with a Life Coach while they attend workshops. Life Coaches can help participants apply workshop information on an individual basis. Life Coaches are experienced, well-trained, mature Christians who are a valuable resource and encouragement.
Coaches are available to meet outside of the workshops at mutually agreeable times. You can meet with your coach one-on-one, or you and your significant other can meet in a couple-to-couple setting. Your meetings can be held at the church, public library, at a coffee shop, or a location of your choice. The coaching relationship will conclude at the end of the workshops, but some participants have developed ongoing friendships that extend after the coaching ends.
Schedule
All workshops are held on Wednesday evenings. A meal is provided at a special rate of $2 per person and free childcare and children’s activities are provided.
The Wednesday night schedule is:
5:30-6:20 - Dinner in the BFC Atrium ($2 per person)
