Sunday gatherings are vital, but they are only one part of belonging to our church family. Most discipleship happens in the everyday rhythms of life, in homes, around tables, in conversations, and in shared mission. Gospel Communities are where we learn to follow Jesus together, share joys and burdens, and live out the gospel in real and practical ways.

Our GCs are more than small groups or Bible studies. They are spiritual families on mission, shaped by God’s Word and prayer, and centred on helping people find and follow Jesus. In every community, we seek to grow in three key ways: Discipleship, Care, and Mission.

Every Gospel Community shares the same DNA:

Discipleship

• We grow together as followers of Jesus by opening God’s Word, reflecting on Sunday’s teaching, praying, confessing sin, and encouraging one another to live faithfully in everyday life.

Care

• We carry one another’s burdens, celebrate joys, and support one another practically and prayerfully. No one is meant to walk alone. We seek to be a family marked by love, grace, and commitment.

Mission

• We intentionally seek to welcome others, show hospitality, pray for opportunities to share the gospel, and serve our neighbourhoods. Each community exists not just for itself, but for the good of others and the glory of God.

Each Gospel Community follows a simple, repeatable rhythm that helps us grow in discipleship, care, and mission.

Most months include:

Shared Meals

• We regularly gather around a table to eat together, build relationships, and practise gospel hospitality.

Word, Prayer, and Care

• We open God’s Word, reflect on Sunday’s teaching, pray for one another, and apply the gospel to everyday life.

Focused Seasons

• At times, we set aside space for extended prayer, outreach, mission awareness, or deeper discipleship.

Alongside these gatherings, we share life throughout the week through coffee, walks, family meals, and everyday moments. These ordinary rhythms become opportunities for encouragement, discipleship, and mission.

Alongside Gospel Communities, we encourage members to be part of smaller Discipleship Groups (usually groups of two or three men or women) that meet regularly across the life of the church.

These groups provide space for deeper accountability, confession, prayer, and personal growth. They are intentional environments for helping one another apply the gospel, grow in Christlike character, and pursue holiness together.

Discipleship Groups strengthen our Gospel Communities and help ensure that no one is overlooked as we seek to mature as disciples of Jesus.

We believe that following Jesus shapes every part of life. Because of the grace we have received, we encourage one another to be sacrificial, flexible, and servant-hearted, placing the gospel above comfort, preferences, and routines. Our desire is to see lives transformed and neighbourhoods blessed through loving, faithful Christian community.

Being part of a Gospel Community is one of the main ways we live out our calling to find and follow Jesus together. Anyone and everyone is welcome. We would love to walk with you and help you grow in faith, community, and mission.

We currently have Gospel Communities in the following areas and are prayerfully seeking to multiply into other parts of the Wirral:

• Bebington

• Eastham
