At RockPointe, we have 2 roles of small group “leadership” that may be pursued – a small group host and small group leader. If a person desires to be connected to biblical community quickly, the host role is the path to pursue.  If you have a couple of friends and have a heart for God and people, willing to open your home, serve a snack and turn on material we provide, then you can be a small group host.

The leader role is more expansive and requires a more formal application and interview process. Candidates for both roles should have a consistent relationship with God, a desire to be used by God to serve others, and a humble, teachable heart that receives instruction gladly.  We are NOT looking for perfect people; we ARE looking for people who know that spiritual maturity is a journey, and who are willing to help lead a few other people along the way.

If you would like to pursue becoming a small group leader at RockPointe, there are several more steps involved. Here is what the process looks like to become a small group leader:

• Pray about your desire to lead a small group. If you are a member of a small group, discuss it with your current group leader.
• If you have not already, become a member of RockPointe Church.
• Review our Small Group Leadership Commitment, Sharing Small Group Leadership Roles and Small Group Leader Communication Policy.
• Complete the Small Group Leader Application.
• Your application will be reviewed by the Small Group Ministry Director.
• The Small Group Ministry Team will contact you to schedule an interview to get to know you better, review your application, and answer any questions you may have.
• ALL hosts and leaders will have background checks run.
• For Small Groups with children, Child Safety Training is required and provided.

If approved:

• You will be required to attend 2 small group leader training sessions.
• You will receive our weekly small group leader newsletter with resources and pertinant infomation.
• Leadership equipping and care materials will be provided along with Bible study and curriculum options.
• Leaders will be expected to attend re-Group leader training sessions held 2-3 times per year.
• Work with the Small Group Ministry Team to learn more about your responsibilities as a group leader and contact prospective members for your new small group.
