Start An A.R.M. Discussion Group
How do I start a group? Find at least two other people that love Jesus and want to study the Bible together. We consider an A.R.M. discussion group to be at least three people meeting together to discuss the Scriptures and grow in their faith.
What can we discuss and study? We have several options for your bible study groups, which you can see down below for your convenience.
-
Jason's Discipleship Book "Fruitful" (sample here)
-
Online Bible Study Courses (view here)
-
Bible Teaching Playlists (view here)

What should groups look like? While we don’t desire to be controlling, we would like to offer some helpful suggestions for your gatherings. There are several models you will want to consider as you prayerfully think through how to start an A.R.M. discussion group in your area. You can find these suggestions and recommended models below.
Model 1: Go through the content together in your discussion group and discuss afterwards on the same day.
Model 2: Go through the content on one day, then discuss on another day.
Model 3: Have individuals go through the content on their own and then come together for discussion.
What can we do besides discuss the Scriptures?
-
Prayer
-
Worship
-
Communion
-
Share a meal together
-
Share words of encouragement
-
Exercise your gifts and allow for God’s Spirit to move as He wills
When and where should we meet? Pick any place. If you can’t open your home, find a public place and let your group be a light in the world. Meet at a coffee shop, take turns hosting in each other’s homes, find a nearby park, or any other place God brings to mind.
Do you agree with our theology on the PRIMARY doctrines? We ask that you look over our theological statement on the essential teachings of the faith to make sure that we are in agreement at least on those. You can view our ministry's statement right here.
