Connection Groups start next week. Pastor Mike did another great job putting this together. We have a goal at High Point we want to have at least 50% or more of our adult Sunday morning attendance in a connection group and or serving in a ministry team. We have well over a hundred individual names in our volunteer roster and each trimester of connection groups we have close to 70% of our adult attendance in groups.
We find that a biblical model of discipleship is to live life connected in faith building community. I can not be everyone's best friend and discipler, as much as I wish I could. Jesus was only able to have 12 and I am not Jesus. But what I can do is create environments that are self feeding. I and the pastoral Team create self feeding opportunities that encourage people to grow and tae responsibility for that growth. We want you to individually fulfill Gods best for your life. That means seeing your friends and family come to Christ who do not know him.
When you bring someone who doesn't fallow Christ Sunday is a great place for them to discover more, But the real deal is that it is your responsibility to help them grow. So like the Olympic Volleyball team, We set the ball so you can spike it. Connection groups are an awesome place to Find Your Place- Develop Your Faith- and Live Your Potential.
I meet people every time we do connection groups who tell me they have found some of their best friends in connection groups. Others found a place of Hope when they were going through a dark time their. I personally love it because I get to talk about stuff I like with people who are mutually interested. Whatever your reason Connection groups are for you. Check them out.
