Small Groups

Life’s a Journey, Travel Together

Make life-long friends, gain support from people who care 
about your spiritual growth in Christ and commit 
to “doing life together” in a small group.  

Deep within us all is a desire to belong.  Each of us likes to belong to a group 
of people where, in the words of the theme song from the sitcom Cheers,
“everybody knows your name.” Employees stay on jobs because of this desire. 
Even though they might earn more money elsewhere, they stay where they are
because they feel like a valued member of a team. We were not created for 
isolation. We were created for community—with God and with one another. 
Community is at the center of who we are and who God is.  

I would really like to encourage you to become active in a life group.  Meeting
regularly with a small group of believers provides a way to connect with others, 
feel a sense of belonging, and study the Bible so you will be better equipped 
to deal with life in our fast-paced society. 

If you feel you would like to be a part of a life group or if God is challenging 
you to be a small group leader, please see Jeff Heffelfinger or contact the 
Adventure-Life Office and leave a message.  Thank you and God bless you 
and your friends in your journey.
