GRACE COMMUNITY CHURCH

What is rooted?

Rooted Groups are a 10-week discipleship experience designed to connect people with God, the church, and their purpose. Together, in a group of 10-12 people from all walks of life, you’ll explore the Bible, engage in prayer and service experiences, share stories, and practice rhythms essential to a healthy spiritual life. Being a part of this group will lead you to encounter God together in community and through His Word. It will train you in the 7 rhythms of a disciple (daily devotions, prayer, repentance, service, sacrificial generosity, evangelism, and worship), which we see taught and practiced by the early church in Acts 2.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. What is Rooted? Rooted is a 10-week discipleship program and a catalyst for life-change. It provokes questions and conversations and group experiences designed to give you a glimpse of your story in God’s story.
  2. What does it cost? The cost is $20 for each participant which covers the cost of the Rooted workbook.
  3. Who is it For? Rooted is for those who are new believers, it is for new members of Grace, those who are newly attending Grace, or those who need a renewed start in their relationship with the Lord and deeper connection with GCC.
  4. Where and when does it meet? All of our Rooted groups meet at GCC during the 11am service.
  5. Is there childcare available? Yes! during our 11am service we have children's programming available through 5th grade.
  6. What if I cannot make all 10 weeks? We understand that Rooted is a large time commitment, but we believe it is worth it to invest in the entire process. If you know you are going to miss more than 2 meetings, we ask that you wait until the next session of Rooted. The 10 weeks are a cumulative experience, and so we ask that every participant commit to honor each other with being at every meeting.
  7. What is the difference between Rooted and Life Groups? Rooted is the on-ramp and foundation to Life Groups. Our prayer is that at the end of the 10 weeks, you will have created such a great community with your rooted group that it will continue on into a life group.
  8. Are there scholarships available? We believe that Rooted is a life-changing experience and we want everyone to participate! We understand that the Rooted workbook fee may be a burden for some and we are happy to provide scholarships.
