Phoenix Bible Church runs Life in Community class to learn about the community in the church every Monday from Feb. 6 to Feb. 27.
The church’s Facebook page noted that it is a three-week class with one special additional evening for participants to experience “community.”
Life in Community
The church’s website explains a great community is when people living in the community are rooted in the gospel and identified by the Spirit. They emphasized that there would be great things that would happen.
Moreover, they stated that an exceptional community is when members are committed to one another. They share their sorrows and joys, as mentioned on the website. Besides, they stressed that eat, pray, play, and sing together.
Dustin Willis defines the description of this beautiful community in his book Life in Community.
Community Groups
In another section, Pheonix Bible Church noted that their community groups are smaller settings where members could relate with others and live out biblical truths.
As further explained, the church offers group gatherings in homes on various nights throughout the valley. They added that they provide community group meetings online and in-home most evenings.
Membership
The church’s membership section posted that the Phoenix Bible Church offers membership classes. This course is typically offered twice a year, as the website mentions.
According to them, they have a membership class in spring and in fall.
In addition, the website explained that Covenant Membership is an excellent way to take steps in their relationship with God and His church publicly and intentionally.
Meanwhile, the church emphasized that the most common definition of the church in the New Testament is a “body.” They explained the body has parts that are connected and take roles in important but different ways.
More importantly, the Covenant Membership at Pheonix Bible Church offers a vivid direction and people to assist each individual to intentionally and efficiently mature as Jesus’ followers.
According to the website, it also offers leaders a better chance to know, nurture, and cultivate their members in ways related to their daily lives.
Lastly, they posted that the Covenant Membership offers a clear image of the beauty of the diverse, committed church covered around God’s glory.
Teams
The church’s team page stressed that they are all made with particular gifts and skill sets. They pointed out that, like a body, each individual has a unique part in the church.
At Pheonix Bible Church, they practice these unique parts in their “Teams.” They posted that they have various teams that members could join.
In addition, they stated that these teams include hosts, kids, youth, and college and young adults. They also offer a group for worship band and production, as further mentioned on the website.
Moreover, the church has a team of community group leaders. They noted that these people share the dynamic of individual community groups. They added that they meet throughout the week.
Another team that the church offers is the Prayer team. According to them, team members prayerfully respond to submitted prayer requests.
