Have a group of people you already get together with? Why not make that purposeful? Here’s an idea you can use for either a 6, 8 week, or even a 13 week small group. The beauty of this is that the teaching is online which means you can watch when you all get together or each person/couple can watch on their own time before meeting. If you choose to watch on your own, then when you all get together it can be anywhere; a house, a restaurant, a park, wherever you want. When you’re together simply have a discussion about the teaching you watched. The other beauty of this is that the groups can be easily set up to be done virtually if you need to.
If you prefer you can use discussion questions from Sunday messages to take Sunday a little deeper. We also recommend RightNow Media studies to go with each sermon series. Go to the messages page and find those linked within each series.

Weeks 2-5
When God calls us to himself, he sets us apart—he makes us holy. But what does it mean to be holy? What habits define God’s people, no matter where they are on earth or which denomination they are a part of? In this four-session series, pastor Derwin Gray explores four foundational behaviors of Christians. God calls us to a new way of living, one formed by rhythms of holiness.
Week 6
Social and/or Service Project - Take a break from guided discussion and help your group connect relationally. Host a game night or just a social night together with the whole family. Or, explore ways you could work together on a service project in your community, maybe through one of our local organizations.

Weeks 2-7
We don’t have to look far to see division in our world. And in many ways, we are confused, angry, and disillusioned by all the chaos we’re experiencing. How should Christians respond to the chaos? What does it look like to live faithfully in these strange and challenging times? Join bestselling author Bob Goff in this six-session series as he helps us answer these questions. Learn what it looks like to follow Jesus and obey his commands even in a time of chaos.
Week 8
Social and/or Service Project - Take a break from guided discussion and help your group connect relationally. Host a game night or just a social night together with the whole family. Or, explore ways you could work together on a service project in your community.
Want to make it a 13 week option?
Start with the week 1 then do both studies using the social/service project week to give you a break between studies.
What about when you’re done?
We encourage you to keep it going! Maybe invite a new person or couple to your group. Maybe split your group and invite new people. Remember the goal is what Jesus said - to be and make disciples.
