The weekly small-group meetings include relevant teachings in which the Word of God is shared in a simple and practical way. The groups also serve an evangelistic purpose, since members are encouraged to bring lost friends and relatives with them to the meetings. In the small-group format, members find an intimate setting where they can grow in their relationships with both God and other people.

The goal of the small groups is to help each member grow to his or her fullest potential in Christ. Members have shared how Acworth’s small groups have blessed their lives and enriched their relationships. The bottom line is that small groups are all about life and community as they become the eyes, ears, mouth, and hands of Jesus.

If you have never attended a small group and need help in finding one, call 770-975-1124.

We have several small groups (LifeGroups) that are meeting all over the greater Acworth area.  We also have small groups meeting specifically for College & Career ages (www.thepinflow.com) that are held on Thursdays @ the annex church at 7:30 p.m., as well as Spanish-speaking cells.  For Spanish cells (LifeGroups) please contact Spanish Ministries Director Flavia Kesser at 404-808-8269.

Connect

Jesus had a team He “did life” with.  He ate with them, walked with them, and ministered with them. He developed meaningful relationships with them and developed a strategy through which all humankind could be reconciled. Why is it that modern-day Christians have such a hard time doing anything other than going to a church service?

The early church connected in very natural, organic ways: “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” (Acts 2:46 NIV). They loved to eat a good meal together, laugh together, and pray together in one another’s homes as well as in their large temple gatherings.

Here at Acworth Church, we have developed “communities” that exist within our larger congregation: women, men, couples, young adults, youth, and children. Within this context, small groups meet weekly in homes, coffee shops, or wherever they can gather. In these small groups, the focus is on worship, fellowship, teaching, serving, and outreach. Within each community, some groups focus more on Bible teaching curriculums, some on ministry, and some on outreach.

Grow

Here at Acworth Church, we have designed a growth track to help you develop to your full potential and fulfill God’s magnificent plan for your life. The early church held classes and services where people learned doctrine: “And they continued steadfastly in the apostle’s doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers” (Acts 2:42 NKJV).
