  • Summary

  • In this episode of the podcast Lance Wigton and Jim Putman discuss the purpose of the weekend service. They talk about how it can be a time to develop leaders and disciples by establishing systems and processes that go beyond a one-and-a-half-hour weekly service.

    They discuss the fact that both large church gatherings and small group meetings are crucial, as relationships are fundamental to spiritual growth, but the church should embody a lifestyle of daily relational connections, as exemplified in Hebrews 3:12-13, rather than confining spiritual practices to a brief weekly session.

    They bring up the analogy that the weekend service can be looked at as a watering hole - a place where leaders can get an overview of the flock to see who is missing and who might be struggling. It is also an opportunity to build and deepen connections with others who meet in groups together during the week. When a Small Group culture is in place - it takes pressure off of what the preacher needs to do through a weekly sermon. His job is that people understand how to feed themself, not to feed them.
