Wednesday Groups
Group#:W1
Leader: Pastor Mike Williams
Group Name: General / Open to all
Time: Starts Wednesday August 18th at 6:00PM to 7:30PM
Location: Arise Christian Church
Group Description: The New Testament Church. Jesus said: “I will build My church, and the gates of hell will not prevail against it”. Psalms 127:1 declares: “unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain”. 1 Peter 2:5 “You yourselves like lively stones are being built up as a spiritual house.” The Apostle Paul, in Romans 12:5, 1 Cor. 10:17, Eph. 4:12 and Hebrews 13:3 refers to the New Testament Church as the Body of Christ. Made up of many members, all connected to each other, all vitally needed, unique from each other but united In Christ. Are we following the divine design of what the New Testament Church should be? Should modern day culture learn to adapt itself to the early church practices? Or are the early church practices no longer relevant? What were some of the challenges of the early church? What is working and what's not in our churches today? Join in the group discussion and let's learn together as we explore this very important topic.
Thursday Groups

The subtitle of the book “Marriage in light of Eternity“ helps us focus on the fact that our Primary goal is to love God and fulfill His calling on our lives.
