In Pattern, with the help of the text and audio guides that include the Bible verses, your small group will experience authentic, simple, and reproducible patterns for life as disciples of Jesus. In fact, as you care for one another, discover God’s principles and practices, put into action what you discover, experience God’s presence, and share it with others—you will begin to help other people form groups and grow together in their living rooms. Using the life cycle of a plant as inspiration, these grouped journeys are categorized as Begin, Follow, Grow, and Gather. These help each group find the point where they want to begin as they grow together. Each journey organizes the meeting into three portions of interaction that any person in the group can facilitate. We can’t wait for you to experience how one week’s gathering ties into the next to help you grow. It is a Pattern for life!
