Gospel Communities

“The believers devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.” 

Acts 2:42

At Plentylife, we believe that being part of a loving and supportive community is essential as we seek to learn and grow in our faith in Jesus, to worship him and share his love with others.

What

Gospel Communities are mid-sized gatherings (15-35 people) that meet to explore faith in Jesus, grow in our understanding of the gospel - the Good News of Jesus - and how it makes a difference in our lives today.

When & Where

Gospel Communities meet at different times during the week in homes, parks and other local spaces. Each group has a simple rhythm of sharing life, exploring faith and joining God in loving the people around us.

Who

Gospel Communities are for everyone interested in following Jesus. From people who have been following him for decades, to someone right at the beginning of the journey. Each Community includes a variety of ages and life stages, including youth and children.

Our Gospel Communities aim to be places of:

Where we grow as followers of Jesus together, taking ownership of our discipleship, encouraging one another’s growth, and sharing responsibility for our life together across ages and faith stages.

 

Sharing meals, our gifts and resources as we embrace life together as part of God’s family.

 

Loving one another as Christ first loved us; being honest and accountable as we share our lives together, repenting from sin and sharing grace.

Providing opportunities for discussion and questions as we creatively engage with the Bible and allow his word to shape every area of our lives.

Prioritising hearing from God when we gather, sharing our joys and our burdens with Jesus and listening for his words of love and guidance.

Preparing and supporting one another as we join in with what God is doing around us – in the lives of others, our neighbourhoods and the world.

Open and invitational in nature, Gospel Communities will grow with new members, as well as in faith and maturity, leading to the opportunity to plant new Gospel Communities.

Our Gospel Community Values work in partnership with our overall Plentylife Mission, Vision and Values
