Do Not Be Afraid?
Not all fear is sinful. God gave us natural fear to protect us from danger and reverent fear to respond rightly to His greatness. Fear becomes sinful when it turns into consuming fear or compromising fear. Fear isn't the problem—it's how we respond to it.
Week One - Winter trimester
HOW CAN I HELP MY GROUP FAST?
Our church-wide 28 days of fasting is perfect opportunity for your group to put their faith into practice together.
Pray in faith for specific things as a group
Hold each other accountable to fast ALL 28 days
Celebrate ways you have seen God working in you, in others, and in the world!
Most groups spend time the first week back to group eating together, catching up, praying, and planning out the rest of the year. If you are looking for:
Ideas for alternative content ( You have flexibility to mix it up by reading a book of the Bible, watching video series on Right Now Media, or doing a book study).
Growth Goal Cards
Group Commitments (Reminders to your group on expectations for members. Reading these on week one can help set the stage for a more productive engaging season of community)
It’s all available at our Groups Planning Page!
We recommend getting input from your group members on what type of content, connection, and schedule they would like to be a part of.
