Small Groups
In the New Testament, the church is a group of people (the ekklesia) gathering to change the world. However, when people hear or say the word “church” today they are using it from the ancient German word kirka, which designates a street address.
Jesus didn’t challenge the world to come into our beautiful buildings (our kirkas). He challenged the church (the ekklesia) to go into a lost world.
HDC’s small groups exist to prepare you to change YOUR world, the 8-15 people sitting on the front row of your life. The church functions best when the ekklesia takes what’s taught inside the kirka and lives it out in an authentic and real way to their oikos.
We hope this helps. If you have any questions please feel free to contact us at smallgroups@highdesertchurch.com.
