Groups Matter

January 5, 2020 By Andrew Hudson Leave a Comment

From the church in Acts 2 to your church today, believers have always thrived in community. The proof is in the groups. Recent research shows that people actively involved in groups read their Bibles, pray, give, and serve more than those who are not. Fill a church with these people and the culture and mission will be radically transformed, spilling out of your groups and into communities, into towns, cities,and the nations. Simply put: groups matter to your church.

But great groups don’t just happen. Churches that consistently foster healthy, thriving groups all do the same three things. They develop their leaders, launch new groups, and feed their people with wise discipleship resources.

Groups Matter is a movement devoted to helping churches build great groups the world over. The resources on the Groups Matter site are specifically designed to help your church develop healthy, thriving groups. Above all, we are here to serve your church.

Groups are absolutely essential to the health and mission of a church. That’s why churches all over the world are pledging to make their groups matter by launching new Bible study groups and classes. JOIN THE MOVEMENT AND YOU WILL RECEIVE ACCESS TO EXCLUSIVE VIDEO-BASED ESSENTIALS FOR YOUR GROUP LEADERS. So what are you waiting for?
Start making groups matter today.
