A sermon based on John 17:20-26, Rev. J. Orlando Flahn
Does anyone understand the value of small groups? They are more than just a church program; small groups provide a supportive environment where we can experience and express the purpose for which God created us: CONNECTION. Growing in grace and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ (2 Peter 3:18) happens best in the safe environment that a small group offers. God did not create us to live in isolation. He designed us to experience community with one another as we build relationships and share our faith with our unchurched neighbors (Acts 2:42-47).
Loneliness, isolation, and disconnection often stem from sin and our brokenness. However, through the death and resurrection of Christ Jesus, God has restored us to experience life together in small groups.
