Welcome to GroupLIFE: Real.Life.Together.
(NCCC’s Small Groups Ministry)

You may scroll down to find a group, but we recommend taking a moment to catch a glimpse of GroupLIFE:

What is a small group like at NCCC?
It is simply a friendly gathering of people, typically 8 –15 in number, usually on a weekly basis, for you to: enjoy a deeper, more personal relationship with Jesus Christ, experience a safe place to share from your heart; express loving care for others; accept the support and encouragement you need as you seek the Lord’s guidance.

What type of groups do you offer?
We strive to offer Home Groups to adults in any life-stage, including ones in which parents can bring their children. We also have a variety of small groups under the care of a number of our church ministries if you are looking for a specific age or gender small group. For example we have small groups in our Men’s and Women’s ministries, Young Women and Young Adult Ministries, Thirty Somethings, Singles After 40, and Life After 50 ministries, Marriage and Family and Mars Hill ministries, and many more that could meet your particular need.

What happens in these small groups?
Each small group sets is own schedule and game plan with the support and accountability of its ministry’s pastor or director. But usually a group time will be for an hour and a half. During that time, you will typically experience support and prayer, Bible study, perhaps worship, and certainly a time for socializing and fellowship. The main goal for any group is to encourage growth in your relationship with Christ and His work in and through you, and to develop a strong sense of community with others.

Who leads these small groups?
Every group has one or more trained Facilitators, who, as servant-leaders, guide the groups in a discussion-oriented format. In addition, our Home Groups have a Hosts, who create an atmosphere of warmth and acceptance for maximum participation.

What are the small groups studying?
Our group various within each ministry. It’s important that a particular study is meeting the collective needs of each group. Therefore, some groups are studying a Book of the Bible, some dig a little deeper into the weekend message (sermon-based), and some are involved in topical book studies or video teaching series.
