What is a Connect Group?
Connect Group is the term used to describe a Church that provides small Connect groups, either in a home, or by media platforms. or at work or in a school or college, rather than in a more traditional Church building. Since most people can only maintain close relationships with only a small number of people, the Connect Group is the best place for Discipleship/Pastoral Care/Spiritual Formation/Evangelism/ and Fellowship to take place. Connect Groups take the emphasis away from the structure and attempt to place the emphasis on relationships.
In the Bible the church is described in terms of relationships between people, not in terms of the building or the venue. Many Churches place their main emphasis on attendance at the Sunday meeting, but many churches are taking the church to the community through Connect Groups. This allows many who might not attend a Sunday service to attend church in someone’s home.
What is the purpose of a Connect Group? In Biology the purpose of any living cell is to grow and to reproduce, producing more of its own kind. It is no different in the Church Connect Group. The most important aspect of Connect Group is their ability to multiply numerically and take care of the people of God. Healthy multiplication is the evidence of a healthy Connect Group.
Connect Groups are designed to grow in number and to grow in spiritual maturity.
