I have noticed again the last couple of days how important small groups are to our spiritual growth.  Two days ago, I met with a couple that were raised Methodist and Catholic who hadn’t done church since they were young teens…40+ years!   However, a little over a year ago after attending SBC a few times, they joined a small group and have been faithfully attending and growing ever since.  Yesterday, I talked with an individual whose small group has absolutely been their spiritual lifeblood through times of crisis.  Last night, we met again with our new “Prodigal God” group and experienced firsthand the value of interacting with others around God’s Word…and this group which has been meeting at the church will now continue at our home because they all experienced the value of our time together also!  Are you in a LIFE group?  I know several that have some room, and this might just be the boost you need!  We will also be starting many new groups after Easter as we embark on our new study, “Becoming The Good Samaritan.”  Don’t miss this opportunity!
