In the Fall of 2019 The Point will be clarifying five opportunities for people to gather together and practice the root systems we are intentionally implementing into our lives. We will use these structures to gather people together in our Trellis.

It is important to understand that different types of groups create a different result. It is impossible for one group to be “one size fits all.” Each person needs to know what a specific group exists for and then ask the Holy Spirit if this is what you need to participate in right now. There are people that are discovering things in the Lord that you are going to get around, attracting you, magnetizing you to spend time with them. People are carriers of the revival the Lord wants to release into the earth. The Trellis is meant to lead people into cultivation of kingdom values. Here is a brief description of each structure in our trellis.

A. All Worshippers Gatherings: This large group is meant to bring every smaller group in the community together to worship Jesus and have very personal encounters with His love and manifest Presence. The all worshippers gathering will be the following groups: These are our Sunday worship gatherings, all church and city conferences, etc.

B. Believing Believers workshops/classes: This gathering is meant to point to take deeper in nuanced courses, classes, and workshops that will be focused in specific areas of our faith in Jesus being developed.

C. Community Life Groups: The Life Groups will be for families and friends in group sizes of 10-12 people and will gather in homes in and around the city. These groups exist so people can grow together in a home to foster deeper relationship. We have identified three different ways that these Life Groups will gather:

· Interest.This could be that you want to gather the artists and go deeper in relationship with people interested in the arts, sports, intellectual, entrepreneurs, etc.

· Life stage. Groups may want to meet around people in their own life stage: College age. Family life. Baby Boomers. Middle School. High School.

· Geographical area. Groups may want to meet with their neighbors who live right next to them and cultivate relationship in an area around their homes.

d. Discipleship Groups. These discipleship groups are powerful opportunities for people in the community to meet and dive into the word of God, invite the power of the Holy Spirit to illuminate the Word of God and encounter vulnerability in a small group of 2-4 people.

e. Encounter Jesus in the secret place. This is the point of everything we are about here at The Point J. The value of encountering the Lord in the secret place is what gave Jesus so much connection to the Father. Every system and structure at The Point is meant to lead people to the place of encountering Jesus in the secret place of your heart. This is where personal revival occurs. Without personal revival there can be no corporate revival or outpouring.
