At Harvest Church we strive to meet you where you are in your walk
with God. Therefore, we offer bible studies for all levels of
experience
in
order to help you connect with God is a real and personal way.
And, we believe that small groups are the best way to help you connect
and grow in your walk with Him.
We believe that small groups represent the best method for
establishing relationships and community. Small groups stimulate
spiritual growth,
support marriages and families, and equip members for leadership
and ministry.
Here are some of the ongoing small group bible studies we are offering:

40 Days of Purpose: "The Purpose Driven Life"
A
groundbreaking
manifesto on the meaning of life.
The most
basic question
everyone faces in life is Why am I here? What is my purpose? Self-help
books suggest that people should look within, at their own desires and
dreams, but Rick Warren says the starting place must be with God and
his eternal purposes for each life. Real meaning and significance comes
from understanding and fulfilling God’s purposes for putting
us
on earth.
The
Purpose-Driven Life
is a manifesto for Christian living in the 21st century...a lifestyle
based on eternal purposes, not cultural values. Using biblical stories
and letting the Bible speak for itself, Warren clearly explains
God’s five purposes for each of us:
We were
planned for
God’s pleasure, so your first purpose is to offer real
worship.
We were
formed for
God’s family, so your second purpose is to enjoy real
fellowship.
We were
created to
become like Christ, so your third purpose is to learn real
discipleship.
We were
shaped for
serving God, so your fourth purpose is to practice real ministry.
We were
made for a
mission, so your fifth purpose is to live out real evangelism.
If you are
looking to
grow in your knowledge of the bible and in your walk with God, this
small group is for you! We will be teaching this six week study in
homes in the community on a regular basis.

40 Days of Community:
"Better Together"
What on Earth Are We here for?
Our lives are increasingly disconnected inspite of all of our means to
stay in touch. But God never intended for us to live this way. We were
never meant to fulfill our God-given purposes alone.
This six-week study will help your small group or ministry experience
relational renewal. Each week you will discover how we can love, reach
out, fellowship, grow, serve, and worship together.
Cultivate deeper relationships with those around you as you discover
how we are Better Together.
This study is the second in the 40 Days Discipleship series. We will be teaching this
six week study
in homes in the community on a regular basis.

40 Days of Love " The Relationship Principles of Jesus"
Nothing matters more than relationships—and no one
understands
them better than Jesus. Based on an exhaustive study of what Jesus did
and said about relationships, this book guides readers on a forty-day
journey that will bring new health and richness to their marriages,
families, friendships, and all the relationships in their
lives.
In this small group study, Rick Warren teaches that learning to love
God and others is to be our highest goal, our greatest aim, our first
priorty, our deepest aspiration, our strongest ambition, our constant
focus our passionate intention and our dominant life value. The more we
learn how to love authentically, the more we become like Jesus.
