At their core, Life Groups are small Christian communities. They consist of 4 to 20 people gathering in a group member’s home or designated room at the church, weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly, to share food, fellowship, Bible study, and prayer. The main goal is to edify believers by connecting them on a more intimate level and helping them to become more like Jesus Christ.
What do Life Groups study?
Each Life Group has their own structured study that revolves around God’s Word.
Examples are things such as:
· A chapter-by-chapter study of one book of the Bible
· A one-year Bible study
· Sermons or sermon series by respected preachers or teachers
· A Bible-based Christian book or DVD series
Whatever the curriculum may be, the primary time and discussion typically revolves around each person sharing “what God is teaching me” from Scripture.
What can I expect when I attend?
When you attend a Life Group, you can expect a warm time of food, fellowship, Bible study, and prayer.
Group time is focused on pushing one other toward Jesus and typically includes the following:
· Catching up on life: Checking in with each other, asking and answering the question, “How have you seen Jesus
at work this week?”
· Discussion and application of Scripture: Discussing a passage from the Bible and the teaching from Sunday’s service, and applying it to our daily lives and situations
· Reviewing the mission: Talking through relationships with our friends, coworkers, and neighbors
· Engaging the heart: Being honest about our sins, struggles, and suffering; praying for one another and speaking truths about Jesus to one another
Who can attend?
Life Groups are open to all Christians and those seeking to know more about Jesus Christ and His message. Long-term trust and relationships are nurtured, and loving support and accountability as followers of Jesus Christ are cultivated on an ongoing basis.
