Commitment to Christian discipleship in the context of a small group is one way we can spend quality time with Jesus. When we do, we are changed.
These are some of the primary ways we can know God:
1. The revelation of His character through the Bible.
2. The incarnation of His love in the person of Jesus Christ.
3. The experience of His presence through prayer.
4. The power of His presence in the Holy Spirit.
5. The fellowship of His body -- the church.
6. The mystery and the joy experienced through worship.
7. Natural revelation, the witness of the creation to the Creator.
Meeting together with other Christians
for prayer and Bible study places us close to God. The passage in 2 Corinthians
suggests that spending time in the presence of God is a key element to
spiritual transformation. What is spiritual growth if it is not being
transformed into the image of the Lord?
