What IS a Discipleship Group (DG)?
A DG is a 3-4 man/woman group that meets weekly to share, read scripture, challenge and pray with one another. The foundation and purpose of the group is to spur one another on in the good race of pursuing intimacy with God and discovering our true calling in life. Hebrews 10:23-25.
Why DGs?
Sunday Service. Friday Night Fellowship. Worship Practice. Would you believe me when I say that these things (along with many other things we tend to associate with getting to know God) are NOT enough to bring your spiritual intimacy with God to the level it NEEDS to be? There has to be more. Intimacy is key to understanding the relationship we were meant to have with God and what life we are called to live in this world.
The UWCCF Committee is opting to encourage you to deepen your intimate relationship with God by joining a Discipleship Group. We believe this is the best medium to challenge, encourage and help one another along in our daily walks if you’re looking to take it to the next level and would be thrilled to see you taking up on this challenge!
DG Workshop
Before joining a DG, it will be important to watch the workshop videos discussing what a DG is, how it works and group formation. The youtube workshop clips are available in this section.
In addition, a committee member shared about the fundamentals of discipleship groups at the beginning of this term. The slides that he used for his presentation can be found here: Discipleship Group Workshop Presentation (860.5 kB)
