Growth Groups are the key way to get connected and be encouraged to grow spiritually here at North Coast.
This site will be updated to view Winter Quarter Growth Group information by January 2nd. If you'd like more information, please contact us at the church office:(760) 724-6700 or email the Growth Group Staff.
We believe spiritual growth flows out of two basic commitments:
- A commitment to God and the Bible.
- A commitment to significant Christian relationships.
To help develop these significant relationships, we have created "Growth Groups."
It is our goal to have every member of our church involved in either a Growth Group or another similar small group experience. While most groups are sermon-based, some are special interest groups focusing on topics such as parenting, marriage recovery and Christian basics for new believers.
These home Bible study groups require a ten-week commitment, and are comprised of 10-16 people. They meet weekly to share, to study God's Word and to support one another spiritually. Most of the groups study a sermon-based curriculum.
The groups meet for three 10-week sessions from late September through June, taking a break during the summer months. Throughout the 25 year history of having Growth Groups here at North Coast, 80% of our weekend adult attendance have been in Growth Groups.
