GROWING IN RELATIONSHIPS WITH CHRIST AND ONE ANOTHER
So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord,
continue to live your lives in him,
rooted and built up in him,
strengthened in the faith as you were taught,
and overflowing with thankfulness.
Colossians 2:6-7 (NIV)
Jesus spoke to multitudes, but he only had a dozen he called disciples. They studied together, traveled together, ate together, and often met in homes. The early church met in the temple for worship, but in homes for discipleship (Acts 2:42-47). They met in small groups. Our GROWTH GROUPS follow the example of Christ and his disciples and the practice of the early church.
What Does A Growth Group Look Like...
In Growth Groups we walk alongside each other and learn to do life together, which is an essential step in following Christ – and having fun! Each Growth Group is unique just as the individuals that form the group are unique:
When it all comes down to it, we want people to grow in relationships with Christ and one another. To be disciples and become disciple-makers. Growth Groups are the best way to connect with others and grow. We have a number of groups that meet in and around the Eugene area.

What Does A Growth Group Look Like...
In Growth Groups we walk alongside each other and learn to do life together, which is an essential step in following Christ – and having fun! Each Growth Group is unique just as the individuals that form the group are unique:
- Some groups focus on Bible study, others use topical discussion materials such as books or a video series; some groups may place an emphasis on friendship, prayer, outreach, and/or spiritual growth.
- Some groups meet on Sundays before our worship service (some with a traditional "Sunday School" feel) and others meet throughout the week (with a "Small Group" feel).
- Groups meet in a variety of locations: on church campus, in people’s homes, restaurants, coffee shops or other public places.
- Some groups meet over a meal or provide child care.
- Over time groups may go to ball games together, go camping, help each other overcome habitual sins, and even help each other raise their families.
- Groups place an emphasis on reaching out to the community through serving and sharing Christ.
