Growing Together


Steve Lizzio

Steve Lizzio was with us yesterday and today to help equip our Adult Bible Fellowship leadership teams. Steve is Pastor of Adult Ministries at Hope Church and Founder and Director of ABF Resources.com. We had a great time with Steve this weekend. You can click on the picture above to see a short slideshow of our time together.

Steve has a passion for building community and equipping adults. He probably knows more about mid-sized groups than anyone alive. Today he taught sessions on The Importance and Characteristics of Healthy Mid-Sized Groups, Growing Adult Disciples, and The Ten Deadly Diseases of Mid-Sized Groups.

The thing that I appreciate the most about Steve is not just his knowledge and competence, but his passion for Christ and for helping people grow. Steve's enthusiasm and heart for God are contagious. His stories were engaging and his love for life refreshing. How exciting to sit in a room with 40 other people - learning, sharing, and growing together.

Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth so that you have a sincere love for your brothers, love one another deeply from the heart. 1 Peter 1:22
