Getting Deeper....




I just wanted to let everyone know that we will start making the “Getting Deeper in the Word” small group series available to our groups at Tiffany Fellowship Church.  Recently, Pastor Barry has started formulating small group follow up questions that will allow us to get deeper into the Sunday morning sermon series. We have been trying this out in our new visitor groups and staff small group with great success.


You should know that we have been having some very dynamic discussion and we encourage you to please take advantage of this great opportunity. The latest discussion and question sheets will be made available in the foyer small group display for you and your group members to pick up at your convenience.

In the future, we will try to have these out by Wednesday evenings on small group weeks to help facilitate those groups that meet prior to Sunday.

So take up the challenge and get deeper in the Word, you will love the growth and transformation.

Raving Fan....


Yes, it is true... I am a raving fan of small groups and you should become one too! So here is my usual scenario and maybe yours too? You are setting in Sunday morning worship service and this truth from a passage of Scripture delivers a square punch right between your eyes, or more to the point, right to the heart. Quickly, you reach for your pen and paper to jot down your thoughts before they escape you. At the same time you had this revelation come crashing through your life, you also hear someone from three rows over let out a hearty ... Amen. In a mere instant you think cool, God is at work in their life too! Perhaps you even nudge a companion in the same row as if to say, we’ll talk later, so be sure to make a mental bookmark.


And this is why I am a raving fan of small groups... talking with others about those knockout moments that you were squirming in your seat with at church. We get to dig in a little deeper with those Sunday morning revelation moments and uncover the depth of God’s plan, or perhaps even being bold enough to ask if someone else had that same still voice spoken into their life.

If you are like me, there is no doubt that your life has been challenged by the "Say What?" series from Barry Clair at Tiffany Fellowship Church. Just make sure that you and all of your friends are digging through those truth moments and following the spiritual growth path God has for you. If you don’t have anyone to share that good stuff with, be sure to get in touch with me or check out a small group guide to get connected.

I know you’re already a fan... now it’s time to become a raving fan!
