LIFEGROUPS
We were designed to live in community.
In Acts 2:42-47, we see believers joining together to grow in their faith and live out the mission Jesus left for them. A Lifegroup is a place for us to do the same. Modeled after the early church, it’s a place to experience authentic community and learn to grow as disciples of Jesus through intentional investment in each other’s lives and by reaching out to others.
Lifegroups are at the heart of our church and the best way for you to get involved at Paradox. We meet in homes throughout the area or at the church, and we have a variety of groups to select from.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Although every group has its own style and flow, you can expect to have a time of getting to know each other, studying the Bible and discussing how we can relate it to our lives, and serving together. Each of our lifegroups is leader-facilitated, but everyone is invited to participate. Groups generally meet twice monthly.
DISCIPLESHIP
We see in the Gospels that discipleship was one of Jesus’ main tools for building His church. He lived life with His disciples, inviting them into His ministry and giving them insight into His relationship with the Father. He tells us to do the same with each other. You aren’t made to figure out how to follow God on your own. Having someone intentionally invest in your life gives you a place to ask questions, get accountability, and receive encouragement. Then you can invest in someone else.
