How community can help meet our deepest needs.

Overview


Dealing with four young sons and two tragic losses, Beth Shadid seemed an unlikely candidate to start a Bible study. Yet as she looked to God for support, he turned her focus to the women in her neighborhood. Beth quickly learned the value of small groups, a biblical pattern of discipleship that has been bringing men and women closer to the Lord since the beginning of Christianity. More surprising, she also learned that sometimes the best way to get spiritual nourishment is to feed others first.


Who needs Christian friends? What role do small groups play in a Christian s spiritual development? How can Christians work along with God to help other believers achieve maturity? We ll explore these questions in this study.
