THE SCHEDULE

Home Groups meet 1st & 3rd Sundays beginning September 18, 2022.


There are two that meet immediately following the morning service for lunch and a Bible study, two that meet mid-afternoon, and three that meet from 5:00-7:00 pm with dinner before the study. 


We're studying Philippians this year as we strive to deepen our love for our Savior TOGETHER!

WHY HOME GROUPS?

We are all built for relationship - for community.


This is part of the Imago Dei - the image of God that exists in every one of us. God is a perfect trinity of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The Godhead exists in perfect unity and community. He designed us to be in relationship with one another. 


As believers, we have been radically changed at the very center of our being and God, in His ultimate, eternal, perfect wisdom has placed us in community with one another. 


As we “do life together” - we’ll grow in the depth of our relationships with one another. Primarily because of what is plainly spelled out in Ephesians 4:1-6 – I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, 2 with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, 3 eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 4 There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call— 5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.


GOING DEEPER

The home is the context in which we pursue and develop our closest, relationships. When we invite others into our home, we’re doing much more than allowing them to enter a structure that we control, we’re welcoming them into the center of our lives. There’s something tangible, yet not physical, about this. 


When we gather in someone’s home together as believers, we’re catalyzing deeper relationships with our brothers and sisters in Christ. Gathering with spiritual purpose, can yield significant results. 


This is why, on Sunday afternoon & evenings, we invest time and energy in Home Groups. The goal is to not just grow in our understanding of and love for Christ, but to grow in depth of love for one another and foster the community that God has gathered us in.
