Welcome to Group Launch!
The scriptures are clear - God has designed our spiritual lives to thrive in true biblical community, where we can study, pray, serve, and grow as we follow Jesus together. But like most things in life, community does not happen automatically! It takes effort, investment, and commitment to see the good things begin to grow.
This is why we have created Group Launch - a 3-week study that Missional Communities utilize to help build strong foundations for deep community together. This video-based workshop includes a few videos to watch at home as part of the "At Home" work before you go to group for the very first time. Then, your first three weeks of group, you will engage with some critical content in additional video-based discussion.
All the videos you will work through in Group Launch are included below. Go ahead and dive into the study, and join us in praying for God to grow some amazing things in your heart as you build strong community with your group! If you have any questions, let us know!
At Home Videos
As we jump into Group Launch, please take some time to watch the following videos before your first week of group. We will be discussing these together as we gather on the first night!
Week 1 Group Gathering
As you gather together on your first night, your group will watch this video together, pausing to engage in discussion of the content as you go. This week, we're unpacking the "Why's" of Missional Community Groups - why community matters to our spiritual lives as we begin to get to know one another!
Week 2 Group Gathering
As your group comes together for Week 2, we will dive into the video below as we seek to understand the "What's" of Missional Community Groups - what we do together to grow and run after Jesus as a community.
Week 3 Group Gathering
On this final week of Group Launch, we are jumping into the "How's" of Missional Community Groups here at Emmaus. We will examine and discuss those core commitments that are required of all of us to try and grow strong community together.
