Next Rooted Session: June 12-August 14, 2024

WHAT IS ROOTED?

Rooted is a 10 week community discipleship experience that is designed to help you connect with:

  • GOD

  • THE CHURCH

  • YOUR PURPOSE

You will do this by learning about and experiencing 7 Rhythms of Rooted: Daily Devotion, Prayer, Repentance, Serving the Community, Sacrificial Generosity, Sharing Your Story, and Worship.

WHAT DOES ROOTED LOOK LIKE?

Daily Devotionals: There are 5 devotionals per week based around a specific topic or theme for the week (ex: Who is God?). These devotionals guide your weekly discussions.

Weekly Meetings: You will meet in a small group of 8-12 people once a week for 10 weeks. The meetings are approximately 2 hours in length. Within these meetings a leader will facilitate discussion based on the daily devotionals and the topic of the week. All of the groups will come together for a large group session during Week 1, Week 8, and after Week 10.

Experiences: During Rooted we don’t want to only learn about what God calls us to do, we want to truly experience it as well. We have several powerful experiences throughout the 10 weeks like a prayer experience, breaking of strongholds, serving experience, prophetic prayer, and more. The goal is to pair learning with experiencing to create lifelong change.

Check out the Rooted Sample below to see an example of the daily devotionals and content that you will find in Rooted and look through some of the pictures to see an overview of how God has moved through Rooted!

HOW DO I KNOW IF ROOTED IS FOR ME?

  • You’re new to Good News or new to being a Christian

  • You want to grow in community with other Christians

  • You feel like God is calling you deeper in faith

Wherever you find yourself right now, God can and will bring about life change through Rooted!

HOW MUCH DOES ROOTED COST?

The cost for 10 weeks of Rooted is $50. This pays for the book and meals/snacks at large group gatherings. We also believe that when there is a buy in, people are more likely to commit themselves to it. Please don’t let the financial cost keep you from participating. If paying for Rooted is an issue, please contact Connections Pastor, Tyler, at tylerv@hisgoodnews.com to discuss scholarship options.

WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING ABOUT ROOTED?

  • “My faith has been impacted greatly by going through this study. It was amazing to see how God opened my eyes to things I knew but never really saw. He also challenged me to be open and honest and accepting of what He was teaching me which has helped me grow tremendously.”

  • “I would hope many more people take the time for this class. I feel I learned so much about God, about the church as a whole, about myself. Not easy to put into words, but I do feel this class has made a large impact on my life and the way I see myself working to help spread the word of God to others.”

  • “I think everyone should go through Rooted at some point, but there is a wrong and right time to do it. If you are feeling ready to give your time, your efforts, and share vulnerably with people you might not feel completely comfortable with yet, then you are ready to take Rooted! If you’re not ready yet, wait until you are!”

  • “You should go through Rooted to get closer with God with a group of your peers; to experience and share your story; to find common ground and support with and for others; and to learn how to share that experience and your story with others - as God desires for us.”

  • “Rooted is a great way to get to know people in the church and build relationships with others. It is also a great tool to help build you faith and establish a daily habit of spending time in God’s word. It helps you to see ways you are lacking in your walk with God as well as learn about opportunities to help and build up others.”

  • “It is an experience you won’t find anywhere else!”
