Families

Parents with children of all ages connecting through shared experiences while raising kids in faith-centered homes.

Parenting is one of life's greatest joys and biggest challenges. At Burnt Hickory, our Families ministry supports parents raising children of all ages in faith-centered homes. Through LifeGroups, family events, and shared experiences, you'll connect with other families navigating the same season—from sleepless nights with newborns to navigating the teen years and everything in between. We're here to help you build biblical foundations in your home, find encouragement from other parents, and discover practical ways to point your kids toward Christ. Whether you're looking for community, guidance, or just someone who understands, you'll find a family at Burnt Hickory that walks alongside you in raising the next generation.
