WHERE DO LIFE GROUPS MEET?

WHAT IS A LIFE GROUP?

A Life Group is a small group of people from the church family that gathers regularly to encourage and support one another in their walk with Christ. While our weekly service is a great time for gathering together in worship, it does not allow for the development and ongoing cultivation of intimate friendships. Life Groups are designed to facilitate these deeper relationships in an environment where we "do life together."

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF LIFE GROUPS?

Life Groups are designed around the following biblical purposes:

FOSTER BIBLICAL COMMUNITY:

Within the body of Christ, each one of us is called to experience deeper relationships where we can use our gifts to serve and build-up one another. Life Groups foster this kind of community where our needs and burdens can be known and met by others, and where we can know about and help meet the needs of those around us.

EXTEND SHEPHERDING CARE:

Life Groups are a place where each person can be encouraged and shepherded through the challenges of life. As needs arise in our lives, the Life Group leader and the other members of the group are there to walk with us and point us to Christ. When needed, people can also be connected to pastoral care and counseling.

ASSIMILATE, DEVELOP & MULTIPLY:

As the church family grows, so does the need for each person to be assimilated into God's design for biblical community. Life Groups are an ideal place for new people to get involved. Life Groups are also a place where people will be challenged to grow in their walk with Christ, find accountability, experience one-on-one discipleship, and be challenged to use their gifts in ministry. Life Groups are also regularly multiplying as new leaders are raised up from within the groups.

HOW DO I GET INVOLVED?

We believe Life Groups reflect God's design for His church, so our earnest desire and aim is for everyone at Crossway to be involved in a Life Group.

There is no formula in how to pick and get involved with a Life Group, yet once a person decides to start attending one on a regular basis; it's common that strong, family-like-relationships will be developed.
