USG's Bible study groups are for professionals working, or desiring to work, in the college and pro sport industry seeking Christian community and an opportunity to grow in their knowledge of God's Word.

Nope! Anyone working in the college and pro sport industry is welcome to join, whether you are currently a believer in Jesus Christ or if you are interested in the Christian faith.

The expectations are that group members would honor their commitment to the study by completing the weekly readings and questions, attending the weekly virtual meetings, and being active participants in those meetings.

Participants will study a book or multiple books in the Bible throughout the study using an app called WordGo. Each week, you will engage in independent study of the passage through readings and reflection questions. WordGo provides a community platform right in their app that allows participants to share responses, have discussions, and request prayer.

In an effort to provide a range of times that fit a variety of schedules, USG is offering four different Bible study group meeting times. It would be preferred if group members did not rotate between these groups each week but continued meeting with the group they began the study with. If there is a unique circumstance in which you cannot make your group's meeting, it would be acceptable to join another group that week if you desire to do so!

Absolutely! If you hope to join one of our Bible study groups, it is never too late. Fill out the sign-up form above this FAQ page and our staff will get you plugged into the group of your choice!

USG's Bible study groups will be offered in the fall and spring! Groups will not be offered in the summer based on the typically busier schedules that most people have during that time of the year.

Group meetings will be held once a week virtually. Those meetings will be led by a USG staff member. Typically, meetings will begin with a time of fellowship before transitioning to intentional study and discussion of the Scripture assignment for that week. We know that your time is valuable, so meetings will last no longer than one hour!

Group sizes will vary based on which time slots people sign-up for, but we will do our best to keep each group under 30 people! The smaller the group, the greater the fellowship!

Don't sweat it! We understand that you will likely have to miss at least one week over the course of the study. The study format makes it easy to stay up to date with the weekly Bible readings, even if you cannot make the weekly group meeting. Be sure to let the USG staff member leading your group know if you cannot make a meeting!

Nope! Joining our Bible study groups is completely free.
