At Asbury, we believe that we are created for spiritual community and that this kind of community is central to our growth as disciples of Jesus Christ. This means that discipleship is more than the Christian education approaches that have been central to discipleship ministries in the past. Because of this, Asbury is focused on developing opportunities for people to engage in Bible study, prayer, and service, all while walking alongside each other through the challenges of life in a way that bonds us together in authentic community.

Small Groups are the primary focus for us in helping people encounter spiritual community and to grow as disciples of Jesus Christ. Whether taking place at Asbury on a Sunday morning or in someone's home during the week, our Small Groups are designed to learn together, pray for each other, care for each other, and to serve with each other in ways that help group members experience all that Christian community has to offer.
