LIFE GROUPS/ BIBLE STUDIES
Fundamentally, the church is a fabric of relationships. Jesus gives us a clear command to love each other (John 13:34), with His love of us being the standard.
Throughout the New Testament, there are specific suggestions about church relationships. Congregations are to care for each other and give attention to the needs of each other: (1 Corinthians 12:25; Philippians 2:4), forebear and forgive (Ephesians 2:2,32), defer to one another (Ephesians 5:21), bear each other’s burdens (Galatians 6:2), teach and admonish each other (Colossians 3:16,17), encourage and build up one another (1 Thessalonians 5:11), confess and pray together (James 5:16), and love each other (1 John 3:22,23; 4:4,11).
To be a Christian is to join a body whose head is Jesus Christ. It is a theological contradiction to become a Christian and then to live in isolation and independence.
Since building relationships is a primary function of the church, it must provide setting and structures that give opportunities for this to happen. Experience has demonstrated that a life group is one of the best vehicles for the church to become what God intends it to be- a people sharing Christ, meeting each other’s needs and reaching out to love the world.
It is for these reasons that we encourage everyone to become involved in a Life Group/Bible Study. Here is a list of the current Life Groups/Bible Studies at MCC.
