Why Small Groups
Small groups are the best avenue for the believer to grow in their walk with Christ, participate with other believers in Christ, connect to the body of Christ, and be on a mission to reach others for Jesus Christ.
What exactly is a small group?
A small group is a group of 6 to 12 people who meet together regularly to pray, study the Bible, talk about their week and find encouragement to make it through the next one. How we accomplish this in a small group is through the following.
Live
Willing to disciple others, model, and live out our relationship with Jesus Christ in everything, we do (Col 3:17,23-24).
Invest
Invest in the lives of others, committing to walk through life with them. We are committed to training them up (Pr 22:6), to making disciples who go out to make disciples (Mark 6:7-13).
Foster
Fostering the lives of a disciple is about committing to correction (2nd Tim 3:16), encouragement (1st Thess 5:17), Bible study (Ps 119:11, 2nd Tim 3:16-17), and praying (Ep 6:18).
Expand
By living, investing, and fostering, we train disciples who will then go and train disciples (Matt 28:18-20). Expand the outreach of Grace Bible Church into Easter Montana.
Sermon Based Small Groups
Each week there is a sermon study guide available to use for small groups, family or personal devotions. This study guide provides a sermon outline, a place for notes, and study questions for further study, and daily devotions. If you missed Sunday, you can access the study guides by going to the Sermon Study Guide page, and you can watch the service by Going to the Watch Online page.
It’s a great place to make friends that last a lifetime. It’s a great way to grow in our relationship with God. It’s a great atmosphere to learn about the Bible. It’s a great source for snacks. Enough said.How can I join a small group?
We will find you a group that fits, or you can start your own. To start a new group or join an existing group contact Pastor Dan at the church for materials and tips.
