At this point you may be saying to yourself, “Ok, I see the point you’re making, and I even see the need for it; if I go to a Home Group, what can I expect?” One word. Discipleship. Jesus commanded us to, “Go and make disciples.” How does that happen? It’s through the building of Christ centered relationships in which we can come together, pray together, eat together, share life together, and open the Word of God together and grow in Christ. And that’s exactly what we do in Home Groups. We come together at someone’s home in the community. We have a meal together. We pray together. We open up God’s Word together. We deal with sin together. Exercise forgiveness together, and the result is worship which is simply responding to God for who He is and what He’s done in ways that exalt and honor Him. The outcome is a faith that is built from the hearing of God’s Word, and as God’s people seek to be renewed by the washing of the water of the Word of God and prayer, we ultimately begin to reflect the love of Christ to our communities at large. We hope you’ll join us. There’s always a place for you!
