Pattern for Life

There is no better place to discover who God is, how to know him, and how to follow him than in your living room with other people like your friends and family.

In Pattern, with the help of the text and audio guides that include the Bible verses, your small group will experience authentic, simple, and reproducible patterns for life as disciples of Jesus. In fact, as you care for one another, discover God’s principles and practices, put into action what you discover, experience God’s presence, and share it with others—you will begin to help other people form groups and grow together in their living rooms.

Using the life cycle of a plant as inspiration, these grouped journeys are categorized as Begin, Follow, Grow, and Gather. These help each group find the point where they want to begin as they grow together. Each journey organizes the meeting into three portions of interaction that any person in the group can facilitate. We can’t wait for you to experience how one week’s gathering ties into the next to help you grow. It is a Pattern for life!

The Pattern App, always and forever free, is filled with ways and reminders to help you share sets of journeys or a PDF or MP3 audio file of the journey. The app contains helpful tutorial screens, ways to connect with a coach to help you, extra topics related to life’s needs, an optional privacy lock screen, and more.
