Spiritual Formation

As a Biblical Community, we will annually assess our own development in Christ using the Christian Life Profile. We will then confess our areas of struggles to one another and set personal goals for our growth in Christ in the year to come. Through the year, we will share our progress and encourage one another monthly in our pursuit of Christ-likeness.

Evangelism

Each household within the Biblical Community will commit to pray for at least three Seeker households within their neighborhood using the Five-fold Plan for Prayer Evangelism. As a Biblical Community, we will pray together monthly for our seeker’s personal request. We will hold one another accountable to prayerfully touch our seeker households quarterly. We desire to win at least one household to Christ each year.

Recreation

Home Groups and Community Groups that recreate together will find opportunity for spontaneous and genuine expressions of Christian beliefs, practices and virtues. Inviting non-believers and unconnected people to these recreational activities can often bridge the gap between isolation and connection.

Volunteerism

As members of the Biblical Community, we will commit ourselves to support the greater Body of Christ at Pantego Bible Church through involvement in ministries such as youth, children, worship, ushers, and greeters. We will celebrate what God is doing in the greater Body of Christ at Pantego Bible Church at least quarterly.

International Missions

As an expression of our desire to share Christ with the world, the Biblical Community will support monthly at least one International Missions Project through increased awareness, commitment to prayer, and financial contributions.

Care

The foundation of Biblical Community will be our commitment to care for one another. This will manifest itself in practical help to those in difficult and crisis situations, i.e. hospital or home visits, meal preparation, validation, prayer, referral to resources, etc.

Extending Compassion

In response to the social needs of our community, each Biblical Community is encouraged to participate in at least four onsite compassion projects throughout the year. The Biblical Community will select, prepare for, or celebrate their involvement in their compassion project.
