COMMUNITY GROUPS

Community groups are the primary means for care at Mars Hill. These groups of usually 10-15 people meet throughout the city during the week to share life together and disciple one another.

This includes sharing a meal, studying and discussing Scripture, praying for each other, confessing sin, counseling and encouraging one another, as well as being on God’s mission together to love and serve their community.

POST-SERVICE PRAYER

Post-Service Prayer is an opportunity for anyone to connect with a pastor or volunteer counselor on Sunday after each service. At Mars Hill Ballard, pastors and counselors are available at the front of the stage during this time to pray with folks and help them in their struggles.

We recognize that because of the shame and pain associated with sin, people are more likely to speak with someone they trust. In this way, Post-Service Prayer is a great opportunity—especially for those who aren’t connected to a community group—to meet a trusted Mars Hill leader, who can help them get the care they need.

REDEMPTION GROUPS

Weekend Intensive: Friday, April 20th (7-9:15 PM) and Saturday, April 21st (9 AM-5:15 PM)

Redemption Night: Wednesdays (7-9:45 PM) from April 25th to June 13th

Redemption Celebration: Wednesday, June 20th, at 7 PM

For those facing difficult and seldom-discussed struggles, Redemption Groups offer a time for growing in knowledge of how God changes our lives by the Gospel. Groups are brief and get right to work, meeting only about 10 weeks.

These intense, small groups dig deep into difficult and seldom-discussed areas of life.

Some of these tough issues may include: Addiction, Abuse, Spiritual Attack, Marriage Struggles, Other Life Trials and Struggles.

If you’re interested in joining a Redemption Group, please come forward after service on Sunday to speak with a member of our Post Service Prayer team. All Redemption Group recommendations will come through Post Service Prayer. Questions? Please email redemption@marshill.com.

Biblical Counseling

When sins and struggles require individual attention, one-on-one biblical counseling is also available. Like Redemption Groups, the focus here is learning to understand how the gospel applies to each individual’s life.

Biblical counseling is seasonal and depends entirely on the person and the situation, but again, the goal is to help people walk through their struggles in community. To talk to someone about Biblical Counseling, please visit a Pastor or volunteer counselor at Post Service Prayer after service.
