What Are Discipleshipl Groups?
A discipleship group happens when a group of people seek spiritual growth together. These are groups anywhere from 4-12 people who meet regularly. Each discipleship group should regularly experience the following:
RELATIONSHIPS
Social activities outside of the group, meals or snacks together before or after the group
SPIRITUAL GROWTH
Biblically based study, practicing spiritual disciplines, and growing deeper in our relationships
PRAYER
Praying for the needs of the group, as well as the needs of others in our community, and the world
SERVICE
James said, “Faith without works is dead.” Small groups strive to serve together or on their own
OUTREACH
Jesus invites us into a relationship with Him and we are to invite others so that they might have a relationship with him, too.
And let us consider how to provoke one another to love and good deeds, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day approaching.
