GROUPS
Connect in Biblical Community with Us Here at OGBC
"For as we have many members in one body, but all the members do not have the same function, so we, being many, are one body in Christ and individually members of one another."
Romans 12:4-5
OVERVIEW...
So, here's the thing: whether you're six years old or ninety-six (and anywhere in between), life can be challenging. In whatever season of life you may find yourself today, the truth is that we need one another! Unfortunately, so often we try to hide those areas where we struggle most and go it alone. God has created us uniquely to serve and meet needs that otherwise might go neglected. Making disciples is messy work indeed...but that's mostly because, if we were honest, we'd admit that we're all a bit of a mess. Life IS hard...but it's also so much better together! That's why biblical community in groups is such an integral part of what makes Oak Grove Baptist Church a family.
SO, WHAT IS BIBLICAL COMMUNITY?
At OGBC, you will find that we are far from a perfect family, but we are all members of one body of Christ! A core tenet of our mission here is to LOVE ONE ANOTHER. Fellowship, Bible studies, and discipleship happen best in groups. Biblical community is the place where we can grow most effectively to be more and more like Jesus everyday. And we can do so in the company of fellow-followers who will provide accountability (without judgment) and sincere encouragement! At Oak Grove, you may decide to become a part of a Sunday School Class, mid-week prayer & Bible study, Sunday Night discipleship classes for kids, ministry teams or other fellowship gatherings. Of course, you could also just join us for all these happenings! Check out the some of the details below on these opportunities to participate in biblical community:
