JOURNEY GROUPS

Find A journey group

The local church exists to glorify God through worshiping Him, nurturing one another in the faith, and being a witness to the world of the reality of the gospel.  The Bible informs us that when we become Christians we began a process of spiritual growth as disciples of the Lord Jesus.  This transformative work of discipleship – the ongoing work of being conformed to the image of God the Son (also known as "sanctification," Romans 8:29; 2 Corinthians 3:18) – takes place in the context of relationships in the local church.  Our goal at Southview Baptist Church is that we would grow to worship Christ supremely, love and nurture one another genuinely, and witness effectively the reality of Jesus Christ and salvation through Him to this fallen world.  Along with regular participation in our Sunday worship service, Journey Groups are an integral part in our strategy to make disciples of the Lord Jesus. 
 
There are a number of Journey Groups to choose from, but essential to each is the word of God (the Bible).  We believe the Bible is sufficient to reveal to us everything we need to know about God, His purpose and will, the way of salvation, and how we can trust Him and obey Him and glorify Him.  In the security of a small group, we can learn how the Bible applies to our every day lives, build friendships, and encourage one another on our journey with the Lord Jesus.  For information on participating with one of our small groups, please call our church office at 910.424.1298 or email us at southview@nc.rr.com.

EQUIP CLASSES

FIND AN EQUIP CLASS

Equip Classes are designed with two major goals in mind:

1. To equip and build believers in their faith.  This enables believers to progressively know and enjoy God and His will.  The more believers know and trust who the Lord Jesus is and what He has accomplished for those who believe, the more believers will worship Him with deep reverence and joy.  Our desire is to nurture believers in the truth enabling them to progressively walk in holiness and desire to nurture one another to grow in grace and knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ.  Equip classes are also designed to motivate and equip believers to be a witness of the grace and mercy of God in Christ Jesus to those who are living according to the course of this fallen world.
2. To equip believers in practical application of the truths of the Bible.  This might include topics such as finances, marriage, parenting, and effective personal evangelism.
