SMALL GROUPS
ENHANCE YOUR LIFE THROUGH CONNECTION WITH OTHERS AND JESUS
WHY cGROUPS?
cGroups have one, simple purpose: to bring people together. We believe God created us to live in relationship with others and only then can we live the full life he intends for us. Sharing life through community is part of our design, but meaningful relationships aren’t always easy to find. That’s why cGroups exist—to make these life-changing relationships relevant and accessible to you.
JOIN A cGROUP
Watch your faith grow through investing in relationships with people who want to learn and grow with you. No matter who you are, where you come from, what stage of life you’re in, or what your interests are, there’s a group for you.
Join a cGroup and experience real relationships that will grow your faith.
Our 2023 Fall cGroup Session will launch August 27, 2023
and run through December 8, 2023
LEAD A cGROUP
Leading a cGroup isn’t about being perfect; it’s about serving others by giving them a place to connect. Hosting a group is simple—choose a topic that interests you and select a time and location to meet with others to share it.
We give you essential tools to make your cGroup successful through leadership training and an online directory where you can register your group so others can find it easily.
People’s lives are changed one session at a time by moving one step toward Christ, and as a cGroup leader you get to play an important role in that process.
All cGroup leaders are required to:
- Complete Growth Track
- Participate in a cGroup
- Go through Our cGroup Leadership Training (click the button below for our next training date).
This training will help you understand what a cGroup Leader does, what it looks like to create an atmosphere for God's healing to move in, become aware of amazing resources, and much, much more.

WHAT HAPPENS IN A cGROUP?
FUN
FELLOWSHIP
PRAYER
You’ve probably seen cGroups meeting and not even realized it. A cGroup looks like friends at lunch, teams playing basketball, or people studying a book or topic of interest. At its core, a cGroup is a small gathering of people, and it is less about what you do and more about who you do it with. By participating in cGroups, you can expect to connect with others through a common activity, engage in life giving conversation, and request prayer.
HOW OFTEN DOES A cGROUP MEET?
IT VARIES
Our cGroups meet for three sessions a year—winter/spring, summer, and fall. During the session, some groups meet once a week, some bi-weekly, and some once a month. cGroups are meant to bring meaning and community into the flow of your life, so even if you can’t attend every meeting, there is still great value in joining a group.
WHERE DO cGROUPS MEET?
IT VARIES
cGroups happen throughout North Raleigh and surrounding areas. Most groups meet in homes, while a few meet on the church campus.
HOW LONG DO cGROUPS STAY TOGETHER?
IT VARIES
Most cGroups meet for a session. This way, new people can join groups easily and regularly. Also, the session format allows you to try multiple groups each year. As relationships form, some groups choose to stay together for consecutive sessions, but new members are always welcome.
IS CHILDCARE PROVIDED?
IT VARIES
Childcare varies from group to group. When you search our directory for a group, the group profile will indicate if childcare is available.
WHAT IF I DON'T LIKE THE FIRST GROUP I TRY?
THAT'S OKAY!
The truth is, not everyone will find the best fit with the first group they try. This is why we encourage you to select a few groups that interest you, contact the leaders, and try out a couple different groups before choosing the best one for you. The simple strategy to finding success in cGroups is to not give up. We believe there is a group that is right for everyone—including you!
