The purpose of our meetings is simply to study and discuss the Bible as the infallible, inspired word of God (2 Timothy 3:16,17). We seek to promote faith in the true and living God and in Jesus Christ as the Divine Son of God and our Savior (John 20:30,31). Like the Bereans in Acts 17:11, we encourage people of honest hearts to study the Bible regularly and to understand and obey it as the guide for their daily lives.

You are not alone!  Why not have it as good as it can get as a parent? We are eager for you to join this newly formed meet up group created just for parents who want to be "families at their best," and especially, parents of tweens and teens. Do any of these describe your experience as a parent? I see my 8-13 yr old changing right before my eyes and what used to work, doesn't anymore.  I'm frustrated and I don't like all of the second-guessing I'm doing. I'm not always sure about the way I'm h …

This is a group for people interested in Steampunk with some passion for science fiction, history, and sane, intelligent conversation. We are kindred spirits with an interest in alternate historical imaginings. We will watch movies, read books, listen to Steampunk music, talk ideas, and find places, primarily in the Northwest Suburbs of Chicago, to dress as and explore our characters. Inclusive, welcoming, but not kinky.  We are travelers of time and the imagination.

Calling all those who are ready to give back! As Gandhi said: "Be the change that you wish to see in the world." I started this group for folks 21 and over specifically for volunteering with a not-for-profit organization called Feed My Starving Children. I want to rally up support for what they do because I really believe they have gotten it right.

Hey, let's read and discuss some good books. I'll keep this meetup simple.  Anyone can suggest a book.  The more popular the book, the faster it will get on the list, with some exceptions.  For instance, if we have a streak of books on politics, I may  toss in a medical or philosophy title to break it up.  And to really mix it up, we may even take on the occasional piece of fiction, perhaps a banned book or two.  Discussions will be very informal, but if someone would like to take the lead on an …

Let's get together and organize free and/or affordable, high-energy playdates for our children several times a week at public play centers or outdoor playgrounds nearby.

Ideally, these meetings would: • Include at least 10 children between around the ages 2-5. • Be held for 2-3 hours at a time. • Be focused on hig …
