Community Groups, One Year Later: Growing in Biblical Counseling

Jul 22, 2026    Drew Hacker, Phil Pratt, Derek Best

At Woodridge Community Church, community groups are where discipleship becomes discipleship becomes practicing the biblical one‑anothers. In this episode, we explore why these groups matter, how they help us proclaim the gospel, make disciples, and treasure Christ above all, and how biblical counseling fits naturally into everyday Christian relationships. Community groups aren’t just weekly meetings, they’re discipleship epicenters where the sermon is discussed, applied, sin is confessed, burdens are carried, counsel is given and received and Christ is treasured together.
