Small Groups

Our small groups are designed for “one another” ministry. We meet regularly to love one another, speak truth to one another, pray for one another, and counsel one another.

Each group is unique. We invite you to visit as many groups as you need in order to find the one that fits you best.


PURPOSE

Our groups exist to help us follow Jesus. We are His disciples and discipleship occurs in community. This is what makes our groups Christian. We build together because we share a common relationship with Jesus.


LeadershiP

Our groups are led by mature, male church members. They (along with their wives, if married) facilitate meetings and keep the group organized. They are appointed, trained, and mentored by our Pastoral Team.


Participants

Our groups are a mixture of adults from every stage of life. This reflects the diversity of our congregation and encourages ministry between individuals with different backgrounds, experiences, and gifting (1 Cor. 12:12-20).


Geography

Our groups are generally organized by geography. We find meaningful relationships are best built with those who live nearby.


DISCUSSION

Our group discussions revolve around our lives. Sometimes we read a book or study a topic or review a sermon. However, the big goal is to know one another, encourage one another, and help one another apply Biblical truth in everyday situations.


PRAYER

Our groups pray together. As we learn about one another, we see how in need we are of God’s continual guidance, care, and provision. So we pray.


SINGING

Our groups sing together. We set aside unhurried time to sing in order to fix our attention on God and to unite our hearts.


FUN

Our groups are fun because enjoying life is part of our worship. God is good and life is a gift.


CHILDREN

Our groups often include younger children. Although this ministry is a ministry to adults, children are an important part of our shared lives. Each group manages childcare as best serves their members.
