“We must grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ”

Ephesians 4:15

We cannot afford to procrastinate this work of helping others grow up into Christ because our flourishing depends upon men and women maturing in their relationship with God and with one another.

The Journey group (about 6–12 people) usually meets together weekly, guided by a trained facilitator. The facilitator’s role is not to be the “subject matter expert,” but to guide the group through a set of reflections, relationships, and experiences. The Journey is a commitment and the rewards can be significant.

• Small group gatherings (usually two hours a week)
• Meeting together for six to eight months
• Regular study, reflection, Bible reading, and prayer (two to four hours a week)
• A spiritual mentoring relationship with a mature believer (twice a month)
