The Once and Future Church - Study
The greatest personal growth ever witnessed occurred in a home Bible study. The fellowship of
those intimate home groups, where people can interact, ask questions, and hold one another
accountable, was the place of growth for all of us -- teacher and student.
This was, of course, the way it all started. A group of only a dozen -- fisherman and others --
along a seaside in Galilee. Even later as Paul traveled and planted, it was the intimacy of
home fellowships that provided the earliest forums for the Gospel. The declarations in the
synagogues and on Mars Hill were but an initiation. Their resulting questions were responded to
in small groups in homes and on hillsides.
Today, too many people get lost in church and are only getting a surface skimming of the Word
of God. We encourge you to be intentional and get involved! If you are not presently in a
small, weekly, Bible study group, we strongly encourage you to find one and give it a try. You
may be in for a truly life-changing surprise.
