God intended it. Most have allowed culture to shift our mindset from the community to the facility. Our cell groups are an attempt to reclaim our Christian identity by a shift back to tightly-knit communities meeting in homes. Some say that the church building can be the greatest single hindrance to world evangelism. It can begin to focus inward and places too much responsibility on the professional clergy, thus failing to advance the priesthood of all believers. When we look at the New Testament and at church history, we find that the church never spread so fast nor grew so strong as it did in those beginning days when it developed relationships in small groups.

Why join?

Cell groups are small bible discussion groups consisting of 4-15 people whose purpose is to get to know one another better, and to have a discussion around the truths of the Bible. The cell groups take place in homes. Relationships are difficult to form on Sunday mornings, cell groups help us to go deeper into one another’s life.

The groups will last 6 weeks. You can join a cell group at ANY time.  To locate a group that best fits your schedule, look under Cell Groups on the side bar. Do you know of someone who might be interested in joining with you?... By all means...invite them!!

Whether you voted for Barack Obama or John McCain, whether you’re recovering from your all-night celebration or drying the tears from your pillow, today’s a good day to remember the words of the apostle Paul:  “I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone— for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness”
(1 Timothy 2:1-3).

God’s Word says this: “I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone– for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God our Savior, who wants all men to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth.” 1 Timothy 2:1-4 (NIV)
