Life Groups

 

We believe that Life groups are the place where sustained life change occurs.  Life groups are where real life and real issues are discussed. This is the environment where we celebrate the successes and good times of life, as well as comfort one another during the tough and disappointing times. It is a place to be encouraged, equipped, and challenged to become a fully devoted follower of Jesus Christ.

What are Life groups?
Life groups are small groups of six to 10 people that meet weekly in someone's home for fellowship, Bible study, and prayer. They are for adults of all ages, stages of life, and spiritual maturity.

When do they meet?
Most of our groups generally meet Monday through Thursday evenings, and some groups meet on Sundays. Groups normally meet in one of the group member's homes. Sometimes the location is consistent, and sometimes other group members take turns hosting the group meeting at their house.

How often do they meet?
Most groups normally meet weekly. Some groups meet for three weeks out of the month and either take off the fourth week or do a social activity together.

How long does a community group last?
Community groups initially commit to meet for eight weeks as a Starter group. After those first eight weeks, the group members decide if they want to continue meeting together for an additional 12 months. Therefore, the total duration of a typical community group is between twelve to fourteen months

How long does each group meeting last?
Each Community Group picks the length of time they will meet. However, most groups meet for an hour and a half to two hours

What does it mean when a group "ends" or "multiplies?"
During the term of the group, the group leader will train an apprentice to be the leader of the next group. At the end of the group, the leader will take half the current group, and the apprentice (after becoming an approved leader) will take the other half of the group. Then they will both add more members to their respective new groups, therefore allowing others to join groups with seasoned leaders.

What do they study?              
Each group will study the passage the pastor preached from the previous Sunday.  The groups will pick other topics between sermon series.
