How to Share Your Faith
Do you have group members who are considering baptism?
Our Open Baptism Service is in 2 weeks, on February 11th.
Encourage them to take that step and register for our Open Baptism service.
Sunday’s message was all about sharing our faith and a big part of that is prayer.
Not only should we share the names of people in group that we are praying would come to know Christ, but make sure to take time in group to specifically pray for each of those people.
The Prisoner Set Free
What Every Church Must Look Like
This week’s sermon focused on core practices of the early church, including:
eating together
celebrating communion together
meeting each others needs
praying together
In addition to or instead of group discussion, your group might consider:
sharing a meal together
celebrating communion
asking each other if there are any needs you can help each other meet
spending extended time praying together
God's Plan To Save The World
If your group members don’t have a regular habit of taking notes during Sunday’s sermon, or looking at their notes during group discussions, take some time this week to encourage that practice.
Taking notes helps us think more deeply, pay closer attention, and better reflect on the truths we hear from God’s word each week.
Having the notes enhances discussions as people don’t have to rely on their memory, but can look at their notes.
If they don’t have the Northridge app where they can access the sermon notes, a link can be found right on our website under our media tab.
Here is the direct link to download the app that you can email or text to your group: https://subsplash.com/northridgechurch/app

Paul started his ministry with the Jews, but when they treated him poorly and rejected his messages, he went to the Gentiles. Knowing the Gentiles were unfamiliar with God, he chose a different approach to reach them. We can learn from Paul’s life that approach often trumps content.

The closing words of Colossians reveal a passion that is close to the Apostle Paul's heart - sharing our faith. In Colossians 4, Paul reveals three ways sharing our life leads to sharing our faith.
