Introduction
Life Church is a cell church which means that, in addition to meeting as a whole congregation on Sundays, we also meet in small life groups during the week. A life group is a group of 3 – 15 believers who come together weekly outside of the church building for evangelism, community, and spiritual growth with the goal of making disciples who make disciples. As its members win people to Christ and turn them into disciples, the life group itself grows until it needs to multiply into more than one group in order to maintain the size of 3 – 15 that preserves intimacy.
At Life Church we do discipleship for busy people! You can read more about this on the following page:

Goals For Life Group Members
As we stated above, the overarching goal for our life groups is to make disciples who will themselves make disciples. We can break this down into some practical sub-goals however. By incorporating these goals into our Sunday sermons, much of the work of achieving these goals will be accomplished through the discussions and other components of the life group meetings.
As the life group members achieve these goals, the group will grow and eventually multiply. We want our life group leaders to become skilled at guiding a life group through he entire life cycle from launch to multiplication!
Our member goals are drawn from the following passages in Acts:
Acts 2:41-47, Acts 4:23-35, Acts 5:41-42, Acts 6:1-7; Acts 8:1-4
Putting these passages together we arrive at the following goals:
