We, FCF staff and leaders, believe it is of utmost importance for people to be a part of a Discovery Group. We believe small groups are the life-blood of our church. I try to remind continually, Sunday Morning Worship Services are not enough for you. You and I need a greater opportunity to go deeper with other church family members.
On certain occassions Discovery Groups go beyond just being a study group and become a group of community. One such group, the Monday ladies study (of about 20-25 women), went above and beyond study alone to truly become the hands of feet of Jesus. Through their powerful study of Israel and the tabernacle...they felt called to help a fellow believer facing terminal cancer. Through generous offerings, donations, and volunteerism, they were able to provide meals, cleaning, and needed funds. It's amazing what a few people, encouraged by Scriptures, can do together to touch a life with the love of Christ.
What a great reminder to all of us...the fact is we can conquer much more for the cause of Christ together than we can ever by ourselves. We need each other, and Discovery Groups are a great way to learn what it means to be the hands and feet of Christ.
