Studies & Events

One of the things that we highly value at DRBC is gathering to discuss God’s Word and foster friendships. Below are various events and studies that will help you grow in your walk with the Lord and get plugged into our church community.

Some of these events are open to the public and some are for DRBC members specifically. If you haven’t started the membership process, learn more here.

As some of these events are seasonal or may take breaks for various holidays or other events, please make sure you keep an eye out for our church’s emailedWeekly Brief and check the DRBC Public Calendar for the most up-to-date schedule.

DRBC Fellowship Groups
Our church’s small groups meet in various homes on various days throughout the DMV. These groups are reserved for members of DRBC only. If you have questions, please email jason@drbc.org.

Bible Boot Camps (Bi-Annually | Main Hall)
Our Boot Camps are 'at-home retreats' where we dive deeply into books of the Bible together. Each boot camp consists of a Friday evening session (7PM-10PM) and a Saturday morning session (8:30AM–12PM) dedicated to studying God's Word. This is a wonderful opportunity to deepen your understanding of the Bible. Our next Bible Boot Camp is scheduled for the weekend of October 10-11, 2025.

Men and Women’s Retreats (Annual | Various)
We aim to hold a men’s retreat each Fall and a women’s retreat each Spring. These retreats provide a meaningful opportunity to step away from the busyness of life, grow in our understanding of God’s Word, enjoy good food, laugh together, rest, and deepen both new and long-standing friendships.

This Fall, November 7-9, 2025, there will be a men’s retreat held at the Pine Creek Retreat Center in Gore, VA. The sessions this year will be on the book of Judges, and our speaker this year is Matt Smethurst, lead pastor of River City Baptist Church in Richmond, VA.
