Study Group Resources

Sacred Roots hosts online study groups
every Fall, Spring, and Summer.

Each term, the group studies a different Sacred Roots Spiritual Classic, with a different facilitator, meeting at a different time. Online study groups are either weekly or biweekly.

Enrollment is now open for the next online study group. Please use the link below to register for free. You will need to acquire your own copy of the spiritual classic being studied.
