Life Groups

Our Mission

The mission of Vertical Church Milwaukee is to glorify God by loving people and making disciples (Matthew 28:19-20). Our obedience to this mission is the foundation of every Vertical ministry. From worship services to Children's Ministry to Student and Adult Ministries, our chief aim is to make authentic disciples of Christ who follow His ways in their Worship, their Walk, and their Work.

Uncommon Community

Vertical Church is all about Uncommon Community. We are a church of small groups not just a church with small groups. They are designed to encourage men and women to grow as faithful followers of Jesus Christ and aim to increase group members passion to worship Christ, walk with Christ, and work for Christ. Life groups are the heartbeat of our church, the place where you’ll experience uncommon community, the place vital to growing in your relationship with Jesus. Because in the end, we weren’t meant to do life alone.

Vertical Kids

We exist to see children and families grow in their love and understanding of the greatness of God. Our aim is for children to prize God above all else. Each week, as we come in contact with the God of the Bible, we pray that children will clearly see God as the one who satisfies their heart. We want to equip kids to know and worship Jesus in their lives, investigate and learn God's Word, depend on God's grace and strength, and show Jesus to others in actions and words.

Life groups are the heartbeat of our church, the place where you’ll experience uncommon community vital to growing in your relationship with Jesus. Because in the end, we weren’t meant to do life alone. Life Groups are a key aspect of getting involved at Vertical, and better enable us to carry out our mission as a church.

Sunday morning services are indispensable, but there is much that cannot be accomplished during that brief time together. Our groups provide an environment where close-knit relationships are cultivated for the glory of God. They are designed to encourage men and women to grow as faithful followers of Jesus Christ and aim to increase group member's passion to live for Him.

WHAT TO EXPECT IN A VERTICAL LIFE GROUP:

Study the Word of God to apply God's truth to our lives
Mutually care for one another to meet tangible needs
Hold each other accountable to pursuing Christ-likeness
Share prayer requests and pray for each other
Perform acts of service and mercy to others in the community to bring the lost to Jesus

This year, our Life Group discussions will be centered around our sermon series. We will be updating a Discussion Guide each week so you can prepare your heart for this time together. While most of our discussions will be centered around the gospel and application questions, there will also be questions in the guide to help provide an overview of the passage and give you an opportunity for further study if you'd like to dig deeper on your own. If you weren't at church to hear the sermon, it will be available on our website to watch. We do recommend taking time to listen to or watch the sermons you missed so that you can more fully participate in the discussion during Life Group.
