Small Groups

Grow in community

Small group is the backbone of DBS! Here is how it works: students will get together daily to meet in small groups to read the scriptures aloud together. Small group time isn’t just focused on reading the bible, but talking about life, what God is speaking to each student, worship, prayer, and a discussion around his Word through different methods. This can be a serious time, or a silly time, but is often filled with lots of questions and bonding.
