Join our "Circles of Growth" Small Groups to grow your Community and faith even deeper!
​
What is the purpose of COgs?
​
The Mission is to Revive Believers, Reach Friends, and Reflect Christ. As a church, Growth Point’s core values are Growth, Grace, and Gather. Small groups are one way we carry out these values. By joining and participating in a small group, you realize that your experience
as a member of the GP family shouldn’t be centered on the Sunday worship experience but it should continually grow around your relationship with Christ and your fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. There’s plenty of research that shows that folks who are involved in small groups at the church feel more connected with their local body.
How do I choose?​
Each semester, different groups will be offered covering various topics. Some groups will meet the entire semester, some will only meet for part of the time. It’s usually based on what the facilitator and the group members decide. This semester’s groups, their description, and when
they meet can be found below. You should select the group that most interests you! To join this semester, you have to register for a group by Tuesday, March 8th.

Healthy boundaries. We all know we should have them--in order to achieve work/life balance,
cope with toxic people, and enjoy rewarding relationships with partners, friends, and family. But
what do "healthy boundaries" really mean--and how can we successfully express our needs and be assertive without offending others? By following Nedra Glover Tawwab’s Set Boundaries, Find Peace: A Guide to Reclaiming Yourself, we will spend our time together
working through how to effectively create boundaries in our own lives.
