Are you involved in a small group?

Small groups. Sunday School. LIFE Groups. Whatever you call them, they are absolutely necessary for a follower of Jesus Christ to be involved. Jesus had a small group of 12 that He gave His life to.

Thom S. Rainer in High Expectations: The Remarkable Secret for Keeping People in Your Church, traced new Christians in random churches for five years. Among those who only attended worship, fewer than 20 percent were still active five years later. However, among those who attended both worship and Sunday School, over 80 percent were still active after five years.

If you are not actively participating in a small group, then your spiritual life could be in jeopardy. This Sunday would be a good day to begin. See you at 8:45 a.m. for our LIFE Groups.
