Welcome
to Life Groups
Life Groups
are an essential part of Life Center's culture.
In relation to our motto "Loving God,
Loving people," they provide a major
avenue for living out these primal pursuits
that Christ gives us as His followers (Matthew
22:37-39).
The Mission of Life Groups:
To honor God by helping people become
wholehearted followers of Christ by
cultivating relationships and communities
for friendship and spiritual growth.
What is a Life Group?
A Life Group is
comprised of three or more people who meet
together regularly for friendship and spiritual
growth in Christ. Each group may have a
different focus and format, but what they
all have in common is at least one leader
or facilitator who is intentional about
helping people (whether Christian or pre-Christian)
take one step closer to Christ through a
meaningful relationship.
Our most common type of Life Group follows
a sermon-based or Bible study
format. In these groups, members meet to
discuss and ask questions about the weekend
message and/or a Scripture passage or topic.
As they talk through the lesson, participants
find ways to personally and practically
encourage each other to apply the Word to
their lives.
But
we have Life Groups that focus on many other
interests and needs as well, with that intention
of building authentic friendships and fostering
spiritual growth in or towards Christ.

Starting a New Life Group
Basic Life Group leader training is the entryway to becoming a life group leader. This single-session course is offered at least once quarterly. Watch the bulletin or contact Adult Ministries for information or registration.
Sermon Study Guides
Many of our Life Groups meet to discuss and apply Joe's sermon series. Their leaders and anyone with interest may access our weekly Sermon Study Guide to use for these purposes.
