“For where two or more are gathered in my name, there am I among them.”
Matthew 18:20
Have you ever been in a faith-based small group before? Well, I have been in many at various different places. They have ranged from intensive bible studies, therapy based support groups, and curriculum-based groups with ‘homework.’ After reflecting upon my own experience and discussing it with our Leadership Team members, we realized that we want Perch Small Groups to be simple.
We believe small groups should be SAFE, EASY, & FUN.
Safe means that everyone can come as they are. No judgments allowed and pretenses are discouraged. Even cussing is okay.
Easy means that there will be no homework, no difficult questions, and no religious knowledge required.
Fun means that conversations are engaging, relevant, and helpful. Our discussions are designed to be theme-based, open-ended, and explore and inspire healthy spirituality.
When a small group can embody all three of these traits, it creates a healthy culture to foster unforced spiritual maturity.
