Sharing Christ

Sharing Christ focuses on personal or friendship evangelization, sharing our relationship with Jesus in our daily encounters with people. The course helps to develop an attitude of the heart that moves us to be open to share the Good News we have experienced anytime and anywhere.

The Discovering Christ series is designed for those new to the faith or those who wish to deepen their faith and come to know Jesus in a very real and personal way. Consider bringing your friends and family members who have been away from the Church and are interested in learning about a true relationship with Jesus Christ.

Sharing Christ consists of seven weekly sessions and a retreat day.   The weekly sessions include four components: prayer time, a video teaching, fellowship, and small group discussion.

1. Prayer:  

The extended prayer time is an opportunity to grow in group prayer and worship.

2. Video Teaching

The teachings provide practical and accessible ways to share our relationship with Jesus Christ in our daily encounters with people.

3. Fellowship

The time of fellowship over drinks and desserts comes after the teaching as people transition into their small groups.

4. Small Groups

The small groups are a place to freely discuss the teaching content, as well as a place of accountability for completing the action items included in each session.

Just read what last year's participants had to say:

"Discovering Christ course came at a point in my life when I was really needing to dive into community…and it did just that…I feel like the series served as a catalyst to renew my relationship with Christ by providing the space and content to return to the source.”

“Really enjoyed meeting other people who were striving to know the Lord…our group was absolutely terrific.”

“It felt like a nitrous-boost to my faith."

“Grew in my relationship with God. This was a wakeup call. I loved forming bonds in the small group.”
