What is a D-Group?

Discipleship Groups are small, simple groups of 2-3 men or women who meet regularly to help one another fight for faith in the Gospel. They steer clear of religious performance and spiritual indifference by centering their faith in the Gospel.

How do they work?

There are two types of D-Groups: peer and mentor. Peer groups focus on brother-to-brother/sister-to-sister relationships, while mentor groups focus on mother-to-daughter/father-to-son relationships (1 Thess. 2). 

D-Group Distinctives

Gospel-Centeredness - At the heart of each group is the knowledge that we are sinners in desperate need of the grace of God to overcome the power of sin in our daily lives. Therefore, as we study Scripture together, encourage one another, and pray together, we do so seeking to draw close to the Lord who alone has the power to transform us. We steer clear of legalism which distorts the Gospel by trying to earn righteousness. We avoid cheap grace confession sessions where members confess their sins but do nothing to fight it.
Trust - A key component of any D-group is trust among the members. We will only be honest and open to the level we feel like we can trust those we are speaking with. So cultivating trust in your D-group is a must. This involves risk, but it is worth it.
Transparency - We cannot help one another fight what we cannot see, so vulnerability and transparency are integral to every d-group.
Community - D-groups are meant to be a place where some of your deepest friendships are established. You will get to know your group, their families, their struggles, their triumphs, and their failures. You will be encouraged and be encouraging those in your group. You will be challenged, exhorted, rebuked, and ultimately edified by this small community of deep fellowship.
