Small Groups are nothing new - they've been around for thousands of years. The early church met in small groups, in homes and devoted themselves to teaching, fellowshipping, breaking bread and prayer. And God used those groups to grow the Church and develop relationships among the people of God and with God.

Small Groups are 9-13 people who meet once a week for 2 hours to study, learn and discuss God's Word together. The focus in the groups is not information, but transformation - through the study of God's Word and the relationships built.

Groups are led by a facilitator and discussion is a key part of the time together. Why is discussion so important? Because it is only when we think through and wrestle through Scripture that our faith is strengthen and it becomes our own. And what happens is that we discover that our faith has deepened as we have taken out God's Word together and though our circumstances have remained the same, we are altogether changed!

Today, Small Groups are little bits of church scattered all through Douglas County. There is a Small Group coming to a neighborhood near you! We have groups for every night of the week - Sunday - Thursday. Choose a group that works with your schedule.

Groups will launch at Starting Point, September 16, 2018 from 5:00 - 7:30pm in PTH. Look at the groups available and choose a group that is right for you!
