GroupLink

I am really excited about our Group Link that is coming up this Sunday and next Wednesday. Group Link is the next step for people to take to get into a Small Group. Why is getting into a Small Group so important? I believe with all my heart that it is within a small community of believers – whether this be a Sunday School class or Small Group – disciples are grown. It is here they get to ask questions, share their hearts, study Scriptures, apply Scripture, and be encouraged in their faith.

Someone from my Small Group made this interesting observation last week while we were studying and discussing 1 Peter 5:8 “Be self controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour”. The comment was, “Lions in the wild look for the weak ones – those that are sick, young, or by themselves – separate from the herd. In the same way, Satan goes after young, immature Christians; Christians who are sick – that are living in the flesh; or Christians who feel that they don’t need others – they can survive without the fellowship, accountability, or encouragement of other believers.” What a great observation. That is why being connected to a Life Group – a Sunday School class or a Small Group – is so vital.

Why am I excited about Group Link? Because this will connect people to God and each other. It will also shut the mouth of the lion and send him away hungry! For more information about Group Link, go to the church web site or email me at rbene@fbcloganville.org. Have a great week. Maybe I will see you at Group Link!
