What people need in a friend is not formed in large assemblies or foyer chit-chat. As society becomes more and more impersonal, we believe the church must become more and more personal. Small Groups assembling in homes (Acts 2:42-47) on Sunday evenings will provide this closeness, and the involvement of more souls. At the same time, we will retain the advantages of efforts possible by a larger church.

The S.h.a.r.e. Ministry is built upon the New Testament concept of koinonia (koy-no-nee-ah), the Greek word for association, communion, sharing, participation, fellowship, having connection, and close relationship. In the right contexts it even embraces such meanings as generosity, fellow-feelings, proof of brotherly unity, and gift.

We believe these concepts are worth living for! We believe they are worth planning for in a Small Groups Ministry that revives the example of the New Testament church.
