We believe personal transformation happens in the context of relationships, and that healthy friendships encourage us to experience the full life God intends for us. This includes encouragement, accountability, and confession. Small groups aid in this process because we were not made to live life alone.
A Place to Grow Together through Discipleship
- Proverbs 27:17 (NIV): “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.”
- We believe every person is created with God-given potential to make a difference in the world. Small groups are places where you can grow in discipleship with others to become more like Jesus and fulfill the potential God has put inside of you.
A Place to Protect Each Other through Encouragement and Accountability
- 1 John 3:16 (NIV): “This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down His life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters.”
- When we do life together, our problems become more manageable as God uses others to bring support and encouragement. Small groups become places where others care about what is happening in your life and want to support you in your spiritual journey. Real transformation becomes possible through taking steps alongside others.
A Place to Connect with Others
- John 13:35 (NIV): “By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”
- God created us for community, and our small groups provide safe places for you to connect with others, share experiences, and grow in faith together.
