About Companions in Christ

Companions in Christ (CIC) is a spiritual formation programme offered in a small group setting tailored for God seekers to respond to God’s call to a deeper relationship in Christ, as an individual and part of a small group.

“We must do more than learn about the Word of God. We want, rather, to know the God of the Word.”

Who is this for?

• If you desire to deepen your walk with the Lord, If you want to develop spiritual disciplines to help you grow into Christlikeness
• If you are wondering about your calling
• If you are seeking to journey with a small group of like-minded God seekers

*This is not an introduction to Christianity. Participants should preferably have a good working knowledge of the Bible, for example having completed at least one year of Bible study, such as Disciple 1.

CIC is a 28-session journey that moves through five parts: Christian journey, scripture, prayer, service, and spiritual guidance. CIC is not bible study. It focuses on experiencing God and discovery of spiritual practices that help us share more fully in the life of Christ. Participants grow spiritually by immersing themselves in the following throughout the 28 weeks:

• Explore the depths of Scripture, learn to listen to God through it, and allow your life to be shaped by the Word;
• Experience new dimensions of prayer, try fresh ways of opening to God, and learn what it means to practise the presence of God;
• Reflect on Christ’s call in your life and discover anew the gifts that God is giving you for living out your personal ministry;
• Grow together as a Christian community and gain skills in learning how small groups in the church become settings for spiritual guidance.

More info on CIC: Each regular session begins with a reading followed by five daily exercises that help illuminate the theme and prepare for the group meeting. The exercises may involve some combination of scripture reading, spiritual practice, reflection questions, and journaling. Throughout the week participants commit to about 30 minutes each day.
