Discipleship Groups
Join a Group
We are created to be in relationship, not only with God, but with on another. When we gather together, we experience life as God intended-in community. Spiritual transformation happens best when we join an authentic caring group, centered on Scripture, where we can acknowledge our true brokenness and seek healing and transformation that can only come from God as we grow in His grace and truth.
View our groups below to begin your discipleship journey.
“Let us consider one another in order to provoke love and good works, not neglecting to gather together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging each other, and all the more as you see the day approaching.”
Hebrews 10:24-25
Life Groups
Week-to-week ongoing gatherings
Life Groups are designed to help you grow as follower of Jesus in community with other believers.
Life Groups meet week-to-week onsite and offsite with people who are in the same season/age of life. In short Life Groups are places where people can “do life together”, praying for one another, studying God’s Word, and applying it to everyday life.
What are Life Groups?
Life Groups at Fellowship Olathe exists to help people grow in God’s grace and truth and live on mission in relationship with others. Each Life Group spends time building strong relationships with one another as you share about the high & lows of life, intentinally dive into God’s Word to discuss the truth of who God is and who He created us to be, and then live on mission sharing the love and salvation of Jesus with our neighbors, community, and world.
How often do Life Groups meet?
Most groups meet on Sunday mornings at Fellowship Olathe, while others connect in homes throughout our community week to week.
How many people are in a Life Group?
Most groups have 12-24 people depending on meeting space and make up of the group. Having a Life Group with more than 24 becomes difficult to do life together and have strong connection for authentic community and effective discipleship.

Growth Groups
Seasonal gender-specific groups
Growth groups are designed for accountability within a smaller group of men or women. They often form out of Life Groups to help build accountability amongst members.
Whether you’ve been walking with the Lord for generations or just met the Lord last week, we invite you to join one of our Growth Groups to help you continue to grow in understanding how to read and study the Bible, meditate and memorize passages of scripture, and be able to share your testimony and the Gospel with others.
What are Growth Groups?
Growth Groups at Fellowship Olathe exists to help accomplish the concept layouted in Titus 2, “Equip one another, older teaching younger”. Where indiviuals within the body of Christ who are older in their faith, would dedicate a season to use their knowledge and experience to mentor a younger brother or sister in the faith, helping them grow and develop as a follower of Christ.

Growth Groups are seasonal, and startup at anytime when a younger believer who has not been discipled, desires a mentor to help them grow in their faith and understanding of God’s Word.
