H.E.A.R. GROUPS

JESUS CALLS US TO MAKE DISCIPLES…

START A HEAR GROUP!

What Is A H.E.A.R. Group?

A H.E.A.R. Group is a discipleship small group of 3 people who want to grow in their walk with God and commit to

  • meeting together each week for connection, accountability, reading Scripture, and prayer
  • daily reading the Bible, journalling, and putting their reading into action
  • at the end of 6 months, prayerfully considering starting their own new discipleship group with 2 new people.

H.E.A.R. refers to the method of studying the Bible that the participants do daily individually and weekly together. It’s a simple and straightforward way to engage in discipleship and can be used with brand new Christians or seasoned believers.

Why Do A H.E.A.R. Group?

  • Jesus calls every one of us to make disciples.
  • In order for us to reach the world, a viral/exponential approach is needed. Rather than trying to get people to ‘come’, it’s more effective to empower Christians to ‘go’!
  • It’s oftan an easier pitch to invite someone to read the Bible together than it is to invite them to come to church or a small group (although we eventually want them to come to church too!)

Who Can Lead A H.E.A.R. Group?

Anyone who has:

  • a desire to read and apply Bible teachings to their life
  • a desire to walk alongside and help other people get to know Jesus

You don’t have to know everything about the Bible. In fact, it’s probably better if you don’t! The emphasis is on reading and obeying what Jesus says, rather than sharing knowledge.
