Have you ever been in an environment where you were a number, a strategy or someone’s plan? Have you ever felt that your name would be ticket off as another notch in someone’s evangelism or discipleship belt? Whilst we are not against strategies and plans that is not what this is. What it is though is an opportunity for you to go deeper. If you want the superficial stuff, keep surfing. You have come to the wrong place. This is not for the faint hearted. Jesus said, ‘Come follow me’. Going deeper is to follow, to grow, to develop and to become more like Christ in life, work, leadership, play and devotion. Deeper is basically a call to radical following and intimate connecting. Sure you can do that by yourself but why would you want to? Contact us and let us help you connect with people that will help you to go deeper.

Deeper Relationships: Let us help you connect to one of our many small groups. These life groups provide you with a platform to get to know people and to build friendships. They are also full of opportunity for you to study the Bible and get to know the God we serve and worship.

Deeper Faith:
Have you recently committed your life to Christ? Do you know that you must grow? Do you know how you must grow? If you would like to know more about what it means to be a disciple of Jesus Christ we would love to help you connect.

Deeper Devotion: Do you want a mentor, someone to meet with on a regular basis? Often it is amongst mature Christian friends that we find wonderful examples of Christ-like character. If you have such a friend ask them whether you can start meeting regularly with them. If you don’t but you would still like to meet one on one with someone the let us know. We would love to meet you and help you connect with the right person.

Deeper Life: Struggling with some life issue or decision that you must make. Do you wish someone would hear you out, pray with you and perhaps even give some guidance? You don’t need a counselor but it would help to talk. Let us know. It would be a privilege to sit with you and pray for you.

Deeper Leadership: You have a leadership gift or you have been thrust into a leadership position but you are struggling to swim. Do you want to meet with a leadership mentor? Here is your opportunity. Let us know how we can help and we will connect you with someone that

Deeper Healing: You are tired of living with all the hurt, pain and confusion. You need help. It is on God’s heart to help you for the Bible reminds us that he does not break the bruised reed or extinguish the smoldering wick. God is for the hurting. One of our pastors is a trained counselor. Chat to him. Perhaps he will be able to point you in the right direction.

Deeper Financial Understanding: Your finances are out of control and you don’t know what to do. Would it help if someone sat with you and provided you with guidance? Let us know.

Let me share someone’s story with you. “Life had spun out of control, I did not know what to do. My studies were failing, friendships were a mess and generally speaking, I had been doing life my own way and was reaping the consequences of that. I ended up trying to end it all. Friends and family nurtured me back and took me to Church. I know that this may sound clichéd but God changed me. First radically and then gradually! It wasn’t easy at first. The depression didn’t just go away. Even today there are moments of confusion but there has been change. Personal mentorship played a part in that. Meeting with a friend who was prepared to walk with me, listen to me, pray with me and help me as I got my life back on track really helped. To this point pride had stood in the way. After all men don’t need help do they? It was only when I realised the truth of Ecclesiastes 4: 9 & 10 that I realised I needed help: “Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their work: If one falls down, his friend can help him up. But pity the man who falls and has no one to help him up.”
