The Power of Life Groups

Last week during sermon, Pastor Jeff used the evolution illustration to describe LG.
It was a very apt an interesting picture to paint as many times people go for LG feeling very tired after a day’s work, some problems we face or troubles we encountered.
However the LG has the power to encourage and give life if it’s working right and when the spirit of God is present. Many times, we walk out feeling refreshed and our spirits get lifted.
Conversely, it also means that if the group is one that is life ‘draining’ whereby there is no authentic fellowship and where brothers and sisters are divided… a person may walk in alright but leave the meeting feeling tired and drained… the model goes backward.

Let’s make LG a life giving one!

42 They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. 43 Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. 44 All the believers were together and had everything in common. 45 They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need. 46 Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, 47 praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved. Acts 2:42-47
