A Place to Belong
Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved. (NIV) Acts 2:46-47. The Bible provides excellent examples of what living in community could and should look like. God lives in eternal community, Jesus lived in community with his 12 disciples, and the early church lived in community. Now it’s your turn. Find a place to belong by joinging a LIFEgroup, Community Group or becoming a member of Point of Grace Church. |
LIFEgroups
Wednesdays at 7:00 p.m.
LIFEgroups are interest based classes which help you build relationships, grow in your spiritual walk and improve yourself. LIFEgroups meet each week to learn about anything from parenting, relationships, finances, prayer, in-depth biblical principles, evangelism and even fitness. These classes are taught by passionate people who want to share their passion with the body of believers. Classes meet between 12-14 weeks, allowing you to try something new each semester. If you would like to teach a LIFEgroup next semester, please contact the church office at 205.943.1190.
Community Groups
Various Times and Locations
A Community Group is a group of people (3-15) meeting regularly to worship Jesus, build relationships, foster church-wide unity, discover relevant principles from the Bible, reach the non-churched and under-churched, develop new leaders, pray for needs and advance the vision of Point of Grace in a setting outside of the four walls. Small Groups vary by topic, interest and location.
Starting a Community Group
True community doesn’t develop overnight, but if you’re dedicated, your Community Group will soon begin to care for each other, grow spiritually, and make a significant, positive impact on those around you. Over time, your Community Group will become less about meetings and more about living life together. If you are interested in building a Community Group here are some helpful hints to get you started:
- Contact our Education Pastor who can help you with resources
and tips on creating a successful Community Group.
- Ask people you know if they’d like to start a Community Group.
- Ask an existing Community Group if they’re open to adding new members.
- Find a Common Purpose by meeting with people from your area of service, life-stage, recovery group, or Bible study discussion group.
- Attend GroupLink Periodically, Point of Grace will host a GroupLink Sunday were you can meet people who are interested in starting a new Community Group.
