Relationship of Unity
This is the relationship with other disciples that comes by agreement on the core of Christianity but with little personal knowledge of them. It is the base level of relationship of all disciples of Jesus Christ.

This level of relationship functions well in a larger group (70 or more people) that is open and receptive to newcomers.

We structure our worship service around this type of relationship. Without unity, worship is absent.

Relationship of Fellowship
This is the relationship with other disciples that comes by similar station of life and with some personal knowledge of them. It is the secondary level of relationship of disciples of Jesus Christ.

This level of relationship functions well in a mid-sized group (20-70 people) that is open and proactive in reaching others to become a part of the fellowship.

We structure our Adult Bible Fellowships (ABFs) around this type of relationship. Without fellowship, evangelism is absent.

Relationship of Intimacy
This is the relationship with other disciples that comes by choice and desire to grow in Christ. It is the deepest level of relationship of disciples of Jesus Christ.

This level of relationship functions well in a small group (7-17 people) that is closed soon after forming to protect the intimacy of those in the relationship.

We structure our Accountability Groups around this type of relationship. Without intimacy, spiritual growth is absent.
