ministries
God created each of us to be in relationship, first with Him, then with other believers. In a small groups people have the opportunity to know each other and be known. Small groups are the primary place for spiritual growth and life changing relationships.
A small group is a community of people who:
-
Meet together regularly
-
Help one another apply God's truth to daily living
-
Bear one another's burdens (Gal 6:2)
-
Encourage one another (Heb 10:25)
-
Love one another (John 13:34)
-
Serve one another (Gal 5:13)
Small groups meet in homes, at the church, at coffee shops or restaurants, at different times of the day and different days of the week. Generally, groups are 6 to 14 people as individuals or couples who meet for 1 to 2 hours. Athough groups vary, the will be a time of fellowship and prayer, along with a discussion about a book of the Bible or an inspirational book all are reading. It is a safe environment to ask questions or talk about life's struggles. A small group is a place to belong, and a place to become a mature follower of Christ.
