Micro Groups

WHAT ARE MICRO GROUPS?

Through a Micro Group, you’ll not only learn to read and study the Bible but also understand it and apply it to your life. Reading God's Word isn’t simply about gaining information but experiencing life-transformation.

Of course, any of us can read the Bible on our own, but there’s something special that happens when we read and apply it together. The fruit of Micro Groups include shared wisdom, accountability, encouragement, and growth you wouldn't see otherwise.

In a Micro Group, you’ll learn to learn to listen to what God is saying and what you need to do to obey Him. While you’ll find the process to be structured at a base level, it's ultimately designed to be Spirit-led. All Micro Groups are built on the same four pillars that are designed to help us stay focused and aligned.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a Micro Group and Small Group?

A Micro Group is a more intimate group setting of 4-5 people (compared to 10-14 in a small group). You are invited into a Micro Group by a leader who has already participated in one. A Micro Group meets together for a shorter duration than a small group. Micro Groups are designed to be a higher accountability group environment.

How long does a Micro Group meet?

Micro Groups are designed to meet for 6 months, during which participants are prepared to form and lead their own Micro Group by the time their group completes the curriculum. The total time commitment would be 1 year, with 6 months as a participant and 6 months as a Micro Group leader.

Who is a Micro Group for?

A Micro Group is for anyone who has a passion to dive deeper into Scripture and be held accountable, practice and grow in obedience to God, and has a heart for multiplying disciples.

What is the schedule?

Micro Groups meet weekly for 1 to 1-1/2 hours on the weekday that works best for the group.

I don’t attend Traders Point. Can I still participate in a Micro Group?

Yes, you absolutely can! If you haven’t been through a Micro Group before, we ask that you reach out to someone on our team at groupsteam@tpcc.org to help you get started.

What is the curriculum?

The primary curriculum for Micro Groups is Scripture. Each week is outlined in the Micro Group Guide. By the end of the 6 months, a group will have studied three books of the Bible. Training experiences are supplemental aspects of the curriculum, and they are also included in the guide.

Are Micro Groups only for people who attend Traders Point?

Because we want disciple-making to go far beyond the walls of our church, Micro Groups are open to anyone, regardless of whether someone attends Traders Point.

Is there an online option?

Micro Groups are best experienced in person, so we don’t offer an online option. However, there may be a time or two when a group is unable to meet in person and the Micro Group may choose to utilize an online meeting format.

Where do Micro Groups meet?

Micro Groups meet in various locations such as someone’s home, at one of the Traders Point campuses, or in a local coffee shop.

Are Micro Groups gender-specific, or are mixed groups allowed?

Micro Groups are gender-specific.
