What is a small group?

A small group is a great place to meet some new people at Crossroads, grow in Christ, and share the love of Christ with others. The focus of the small group meeting is to apply the weekend message (whatever the pastor spoke about) to our lives.

What if I don’t know anything about the Bible?

That’s fine! The emphasis of a small group is application of the Bible, not information. No one has to read aloud or pray aloud if they do not choose to do so. Just come and enjoy!

What’s a small group like?

Group meetings vary somewhat from week to week, because we don’t want to get into a rut. A meeting typically opens with a fun icebreaker question, and then we worship briefly by reading the Bible and praying. During most of the meeting, we discuss how to apply the Bible to our lives. We pray for one another and make plans to reach out to others. And we often snack before, during, and after the meeting!

But small groups don’t just sit in living rooms and meet all the time! Sometimes the group does a fun social event, such as eating out together. And small groups regularly reach out in loving service, i.e. to serve food at a local mission, or to paint a neighbor’s living room.
