What is a Life-Stage Discipleship Group?


A Life-stage Discipleship Group (LDG) is a mid-sized learning community that gathers during the
Sunday morning education hour for interactive Bible teaching. Participants also gather at other
times in smaller groups for fellowship, prayer, accountability, and community outreach.

Life-stage Discipleship provides:

  • An opportunity to meet other adults who share a common life situation and to discover
    pathways to friendship and growth here at Community Presbyterian Church (CPC). Current groups include:
 

Young Adults (singles, couples without kids, 23+)

Single Adults (40+)

Parents of Young Children


Parents of Elementary/Early Teen Children


Parents of Older Teens/Young Adults


New Vistas (couples and singles, 50+)


Seasoned Saints (65+)

  • An opportunity to engage in intelligent adult learning that equips you for consistent thinking and
    living under Lordship of Christ. This takes place as your group journeys together through a three-year curriculum organized around core beliefs and practices of the Christian Faith. The courses for the 2008-2011 learning cycle are based on CPC's mission statement:
  • Knowing Jesus as Lord (Philippians)
  • Worshipping Jesus as Lord (Psalms)
  • Proclaiming Jesus as Lord (Acts)
  • Together in Community (1 and 2 Corinthians)
  • Reformed Theology 101
    (A "Crash Course" on the Creeds of the church)

These trimester-long core courses cycle through all the Life-stage Discipleship groups over three
years, alternating with elective courses. Elective courses normally relate to the life situation and
interests of the group, as chosen by the group's leadership team.

TESTIMONIES


  • “We have found a supportive community with other believers going through similar stages in life.”

  • “The Life-stage Courses are the primary reason we choose to attend CPC, and the reason why we want to become members. We wanted to select a church that would continue to challenge us in growing our faith. We wanted both Sunday School and worship, and did not want to choose between the two. We are excited as we see our faith come alive and look forward to opportunities to serve.”

  • “I love it! I wanted to grow in my faith and knowledge of our Lord. I am fed spiritually and challenged in my faith walk. I want to get to know other believers and build community.”
