And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.
HEBREWS 10:24-25
A disciple lives in community. We all need one another. Jesus saved us into his family and has designed us to follow him with one another. As we live in God's family, we are commended to love, encourage, serve, care for, admonish, teach, and pray for one another. To live in community at City Church is to commit to participation in a home group.
Homegroups are gospel communities that live out God’s mission through discipleship, focusing on the Gospel, community, and mission. They are designed to form people in the Gospel, fostering authentic relationships and encouraging participation in God’s mission to redeem and save lost people. Home Groups serve as a primary avenue for discipleship, emphasizing the importance of the Gospel in all aspects of life.
Home Group FAQS
What about children (and child care)?
Children are welcome at Homegroups and are an important part of the faith family. Child care arrangements vary based on age, but children should participate in the weekly meetings and be on mission with their families.
Do I need to be a member to attend a group?
No. We welcome and encourage our guests to check out a Home Group. It would be a great way to get to know the City Church family.
What do homegroups do?
Community Groups meet regularly, in homes to open God's Word, primarily through our weekly sermon application questions, sharing with one another, and praying for each other.
When do Home Groups meet?
Community Groups tend to meet either weekly or bi-weekly on different days and times. Most groups meet for 10-12 weeks at a time with breaks built in throughout the year.
