Why Small Groups?Find Your GroupBecome a Leader

Following Christ Together

You weren’t made to follow Jesus alone. Small groups are places where people gather around God’s Word, ask honest questions, pray for one another, and put their faith into practice.

Whether you’re exploring faith, returning to church, or ready to grow deeper in your relationship with Jesus, there is a place for you.

What Happens in a Small Group?

Different groups. Different people. One shared purpose: following Christ together.

Engage God’s Word

We don’t only want to hear Scripture; we want to understand it, talk about it, and live in response to it. Every group makes space for God’s Word to shape our beliefs and our everyday lives.

Together

Groups walk through real life together. We celebrate what God is doing, carry one another’s burdens, and pray with faith through victories, questions, loss, change, and everything between.

On Mission

Following Jesus always moves us toward others. Groups look for opportunities to invite people in, serve their neighbors, raise up new leaders, and share the hope of Jesus.

Ready to start a group?

Healthy groups begin with ordinary people who are willing to care for others, open God’s Word, ask meaningful questions, and keep pointing people toward Jesus.

Frequently Asked Questions

You don’t need to be a member to explore or join a group. Small groups are a great way to learn more about Fountain City, meet people, and begin growing in your faith.

You are welcome. You don’t need an extensive church background, expert Bible knowledge, or all the right words. Bring your questions and come ready to learn alongside others.

No... and that is intentional. Our groups include different ages, stages of life, schedules, meeting places, sizes, and types of studies. What unites them is a commitment to Jesus, Scripture, and helping people follow Christ together.

All throughout the week! Our groups meet weekly throughout the year, some in the mornings, others in the evenings. Check the individual group listing for its current meeting day, time, and frequency.

Childcare arrangements vary from one group to another. Review the group’s description or ask its leader about options for children before attending.

Your information will be sent to the group leader. They’ll contact you with meeting details, answer your questions, and help you know what to expect.

That’s okay. Finding the right rhythm and group may take more than one conversation. Let us know, and we’ll help you explore another option.
