Bullock Philippians Study Group
Sometimes studying the Bible is confusing and can be intimidating. We might assume that knowing how to study God‘s word is something we should just know how to do. After all, God is telling us who he is, so wouldn’t the Holy Spirit make it known to us? Yes, the Holy Spirit will open the word to us, but not without some effort on our part. But how do we do that? Join us as we go through the book of Philippians, and learn helpful study methods that help us reveal who God is, and what he’s trying to tell us.
This group, led by Bobby & Ashley Bullock, is for men & women of all ages. We meet at 6:30pm on Wednesdays at Restoration Church, 107 Arcon Dr Florence MS 39073.

Why Small Groups?
We believe life change happens in the context of relationships. Small Groups have one simple purpose: to bring people together. God created us to live in community with others, and it is only then that we can experience the full life He intends for us.
Small Groups provide three things:
1. A place to connect with others.
We were not made to do life alone. God created us for community, and Small Groups provide a place for you to connect with others, share life, and grow in faith together.
2. A place to support each other.
When we do life together, our problems become smaller as God uses others to bring support and encouragement to our lives. Small Groups become a place where others don’t just know your name but care about what is happening in your life and want to support you in your spiritual journey.
3. A place to grow together.
Small Groups are how we care for each other. We believe there is a group for everyone—including you! At its core, a Small Group is less about what you do and more about who you do it with. We all need each other and that's why we have Small Groups. Whether you're new to groups, leading for the first time, or a seasoned leader, there's a place for you!
