Whatever you call them—small group, life group, Gospel community, home church—if you're a churchgoing believer, being part of one isn’t just a nice idea… it's something we truly believe is worth prioritizing. 🙌
This week, Michael & Marissa dive into the power and purpose of small groups in building deep, meaningful community within the church. Small groups aren’t just about Bible study (though that’s part of it 📖)—they’re about walking through life with fellow believers, offering accountability, support, and encouragement as you grow in your faith together.
We share our own journey of stepping into (and eventually starting!) a life group, including the doubts we wrestled with:
👉 “Do we really need this?”
👉 “Do we have time for this?”
👉 “What if it’s awkward?”
👉 “What if we get hurt?”
Spoiler: those are real fears, but they don’t outweigh the beauty of what small groups can become—a place for spiritual growth, accountability, deep friendship, and mutual service 💛.
Whether you’re in one already, dragging your feet, or feeling burned by a past group—we’ve got something for you. This conversation is both a challenge and an encouragement: don’t settle for surface-level faith or isolated living. Get uncomfortable, get connected, and watch what God does.
