Learning to Live: Formed in Community
While the large worship gathering on Sunday mornings is essential, the heart of our mission at Smith Grove is discipleship. The intimate interactions that teach us to apply Scripture in our everyday lives and lead us to real growth can only happen in smaller groups.
Therefore, we believe it is important that every believer be involved in a small group of some kind. Small groups are offered in several formats:
Sunday School
We offer a variety of ongoing and short-term classes geared toward every age group, ranging from nursery to senior adults. The environment is relaxed and anyone is welcome to attend. Although these groups are Bible study-focused, you don’t need to be a biblical scholar; you won’t called out.
Life Groups
Life Groups consist of roughly twelve people of a mix of ages and genders, led by a facilitator or facilitating couple(s). They meet in homes weekly (meeting times vary) to share prayer requests and discuss spiritual issues in an informal setting.
Life Groups exist for mutual discipleship, encouragement, and support. Through these small groups, we build community at Smith Grove. If you’re looking to get connected and “go deeper” with other people, join one of our Life Groups!
