Frequently Asked
We offer 3 types of Grace Gatherings:
Discipleship Groups (Good fit for most Christians)
Discipleship Groups are a type of Grace Gathering that focuses on “growing and going.” These groups begin with a core of committed Christians eager to grow together relationally and spiritually in their knowledge of God and their relationship with God. From there, they seek to go and apply the Gospel to their lives as individuals and groups. Discipleship Groups will typically follow the church’s discipleship curriculum and meet weekly or biweekly.
Commitment Level: Moderate – High*
*Members commit to attending 70% of monthly gatherings (i.e. 3 out of 4 weeks)
In order to secure a spot, we recommend registering as soon as possible as groups do fill up quickly! To view a list of available groups and locations, see this spreadsheet.
Connect Groups (Good for those reconnecting with the faith)
Connect Groups are a type of Grace Gathering that invites people to “come and see” what the Gospel Community is like. These groups are ideal for individuals exploring or reconnecting with the Christian faith. They are also ideal for individuals wanting to help/walk with those exploring or reconnecting with the faith. CGs will typically meet biweekly after church for lunch and include a brief devotional and prayer time.
Commitment Level: Low – Moderate*
*Members commit to attending 50% of monthly gatherings (i.e. 1 out of 2 gatherings a month)
Life Groups (Good for meeting others in a similar life stage)
Life Groups are a type of Grace Gathering that begins with a small core of committed people connected through their shared life stage. These groups aim to build authentic Christ-centered relationships and apply the Gospel of Jesus to all areas of life. These are good for people who want to grow with others in a shared life stage/demographic with less commitment involved. We currently have the following life groups available:
- GTYouth
- Young Adults (18-25)
- Mom's Groups
- Women's Ministry Group
- Men's Ministry Group
