Grow Together This Fall
Join a Small Group for Key Practices: The Big Six
This August, our entire church is taking a six-week journey through The Big Sixâthe key practices that have shaped Rooftop from the beginning and continue to shape followers of Jesus today.
Each Sunday, one of our pastors will teach on a different practice:
* Teaching
* Worship
* Evangelism
* Community
* Service
* Prayer
Then throughout the week, Small Groups will gather to go deeper together. Youâll watch a bonus teaching from the preaching pastor, discuss what youâre learning, pray for one another, worship together, and encourage each other to put these practices into everyday life.
Whether youâve been at Rooftop for years or youâre just getting started, this is a great time to join a group. Since every Small Group will be studying the same material, everyone will be on the same journey together.
We hope youâll discover that following Jesus isnât just about what we believeâitâs about how we live. These six practices help us become the kind of people Jesus is calling us to be.

Week One
TEACHING that is challenging and creative - Learning who God is and how to live our lives. To value teaching is to study the Bible, listen to sermons, follow Rooftopâs Statement of Faith, and generally live life according to how God says we should, in Scripture.

WORSHIP that is energetic and engaging - Giving God all the devotion and honor He deserves. To value worship means to come to church, to praise God with singing, to tithe Godâs money back to him, and to live a life of devotion to Jesus, who rules over all.

Week Three
EVANGELISM that is relational and respectful - Sharing Godâs love with others. To value evangelism means to invite people to church, to talk about Jesus to others, to reach out to people who are different from us, and to care about others who donât know Jesus.

Week Four
COMMUNITY that is authentic and accessible - Living together as Godâs family. To value community, which is sometimes called our â2nd Floorâ, means to get to know others at church, to talk about your struggles, to work out conflict like Jesus says, and to live as a member of Godâs family â not an isolated Christian.

Week Five
SERVICE that is supportive and sacrificial - Prioritizing the needs of others. To value service, which is often called our â3rd Floorâ, means to use your talents to serve the church, to help others when they need it, to serve and give to the poor. We do this by joining at least one serving team here at Rooftop.

Week Six
PRAYER that is intimate and informal - Asking God to do what we canât do. To value prayer means to pray for your church leaders, to lay hands on the sick, to expect miracles from God, and to ask Godâs Spirit to give us strength and wisdom to do his work.
