Week 2 of our I Love My Church Series.
Pastor Adam Peterson

We are better together. We were never meant to walk through life alone. Pastor Adam walks us through three reasons why we would be crazy not to sign-up for a Rise Group.

1. Encouragement happens in groups.

When life knocks you down, and it will, you will need people around you who love and care for you.

2. Awesome stuff happens in groups.

There’s no better way to word this point, but than using the word “awesome”. There have been countless stories of incredible things happening because people decided to meet together.

3. Life change happens in groups.

In groups, life change is inevitable. Proverbs 27:17 “Iron sharpens iron,
and one man sharpens another.” We are stronger in groups, and when we let God use the people around us to encourage us, peoples’ lives change.

God can use you to encourage other people. Even if you are going through pains and trials in your life, God can use you to encourage people who may be going through the same things. Jesus was the best example of this when we dying on the cross. He looked past his own pain and forgave the thief next to him for his sins. God is calling us to do the same.
