NEXT STEPS

We offer multiple pathways toward the same goal: becoming more like Jesus. No matter where you are on your journey—and we are all at different stages—there is always a next step. What is yours?

Decide to FOLLOW Jesus

Each one of us has a unique journey of following Jesus walk. Greenville Oaks tries to offer multiple pathways to help you form your life around Jesus. While each individual journey is unique, and while God intersects people's lives in different ways, we are all on the journey together. And we all- each of us- have a next step. Commit to Jesus; confess Jesus is Lord; publicly declare your allegiance to Christ through baptism

Commit to following Jesus as Lord by publicly declaring your allegiance through baptism.

GROW as a disciple

Be with Jesus. Become Like Jesus. Do what Jesus did.

The Rooted Experience allows you to experience a different way of life: community, intimacy, and generosity. It is a catalyst for life-change, provoking questions, conversations, and beyond-what-is-comfortable group experiences to help you find yourself in God’s story. Through this experience we hope you will be emboldened to live out your calling as a radical follower of Jesus. By rooting ourselves in God’s Word and His truths, we have a firm foundation on which we love the world.

During the 10-week experience, you will go through various individual exercises (daily readings, journaling, and prayer) and meet in your weekly group to talk about what you have learned. What God does in the group soon becomes the curriculum as the Holy Spirit moves people to open up and share personal stories and feelings. This is where transformation happens.

SIGN UP

Service is a foundation of Greenville Oaks. Demonstrating selflessness is one of our core values. We represent Jesus when we purposefully set out to use our time, talent, and treasure to serve others in our home, place of work, school, church, and community. As we commit to serve, the impact of that service changes lives—for those serving, for the people they serve, and even for those who see us giving to help others.

Going Deeper facilitates a continuation of our journey of discipleship by building on what we experienced in the Rooted Experience. Utilizing materials based on the writings of Dallas Willard and James Brian Smith, participants examine distorted or inadequate views of God and our spiritual lives, and come to better understand the truth of who God is and how he calls us to live as followers of Jesus.

We will consider, understand and practice various spiritual disciplines that enable us to grow spiritually, and also participate in workshops that help us understand the importance of contemplative practices, how to better share our faith story with others, and developing a “rule of life.”

Going Deeper involves three different courses which Focus on who God is, living a Christ-like life, and sharing in a community of faith. Each course lasts from 9 to 12 weeks.

GATHERING CIRCLES

In-between our worship times (10:00 a.m.), Greenville Oaks encourages everyone to participate in a Gathering Circle (small group) to begin building meaningful relationships with one another.

JOIN A CIRCLE

DO LIFE TOGETHER

At Greenville Oaks, we find that circles are better than rows. Community Groups are the best way for people to get connected with others at Greenville Oaks. They are crucial to ongoing spiritual formation and provide multiple elements for spiritual growth (fellowship, Bible study, prayer) in a relational environment that allows true community and caring to flourish. Members of a group experience acceptance, encouragement, and the opportunity to grow individually and collectively.

Read more about the different types of Community Groups below to find out about specific groups being offered. If we can help you find the group that is right for you, please complete the form at the bottom of the page.

FILL OUT FORM

Connect Groups is the most common way to Do Life Together. Group participants, primarily Greenville Oaks members, share similar life stages or common interests and care for one another, encouraging spiritual growth and discipleship with one another.

Connect Groups meet together, often in homes, for a time of discussion-based Bible study, sharing concerns and blessings with one another, and praying together. They spend time serving others in our community but emphasize the sharing of life situations and needs so they truly know and care for one another.

Discipleship Groups are for individuals or couples interested in deepening their walk with God through an intensive focus on spiritual transformation in a small-group experience. They build relationships that foster significant spiritual growth through transparency and authenticity which enables them to challenge and encourage one another. It creates deep levels of trust and confidence that empower transformation.

Discipleship Groups meet weekly at the church campus and challenge their members to spend time studying, journaling, or preparing between meetings. Groups can also get together in additional one-on-one interactions to explore how God is working in their lives. They begin at specific times of the year and last for a set period of time.
