From the beginning of this year (2014), me and my wife have been quite heavily involved in developing Life Groups in Birmingham, UK. Here’s a short video of what a Life Group is:..
The concept is simple! People meet together for food, fun and friendship on a weekly basis, creating a welcoming environment for sharing, prayer, and discussing the scriptures. There are 5 main areas of focus each LifeGroup has, taken directly from the biblical formula shown in the early church. these 5 areas are: Homes, Food, Prayers, Scriptures and Outreach, and each can be clearly seen in the following scripture.
‘…and they continued steadfastly in the apostles’ doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers…and sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all men, as every man had need. And they continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they ate their food with gladness and simplicity of heart, praising God and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved.’ – Acts 2:42-47 KJV.
The groups we have assisted have been a blessing to many. For more info on Life Groups and how to Set Up, please contact either me or Eraina. We look forward to hearing from you.
