SURGE CONNECT GROUPS
At Surge Church, we desire to see people Live Beyond Limits. This is only possible when we are in relationship with other people of like faith. It is our life together that creates a life beyond limits.
The truth is you need people to help you grow and change. You cannot be a devoted disciple of Jesus without a devotion to other disciples. This is why Connect Groups are so important. A critical aspect to Connect Groups is found in the word "Connect". Connecting with others enriches your life and encourages spiritual development. Jesus had his own small group. Think about it..the 12-disciples were deeply impacted in the intimate moments with Jesus as He poured into their lives.
We see an example of this among the first Christians in Acts 2:46 that states - “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.” This verse shows us 2-ways in which they grew as disciples of Jesus together:

1. Temple Courts
2. THEIR HOMES
They were faithful to the worship, prayer and teaching of the Word of God in the larger services in the Temple Courts, and they were committed to building relationships on a personal level in Their Homes. This is still a great example for us to follow today.
Spiritual growth requires the time, commitment, accountability and relationships that small groups provide. Building bonds with others will bless you and allow you to be a blessing to others. We strongly encourage all of our Surge People to join and actively participate in a Connect Group!

The scripture is clear - we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces of darkness in high places. For this reason, we must be empowered with the whole armor of God to engage in spiritual warfare. We will be discussing the importance of spiritual warfare for believers and the victory it brings. The weapons of our warfare are not conventional, but are mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds.
This study will encourage Christians who are in their senior years to accept aging as a vital and positive stage of our spiritual journey—a time in which God continues to fit us for His kingdom and develops within us the character of His Son. This is not a time to merely exist, but a time to grow and bloom, maturing in grace.
