Sandals is a groups-based church. That is, we try to do every part of the Christian life in a smaller and more relational group setting. Sandals small groups provide these intentional relational experiences for approximately 3-15 people. They are places where we take our next steps in developing a more authentic relationship with ourselves, others, and God. Our primary focus is being real with each other and living out the teachings of Jesus. If you are tired of putting a fake face on about your spirituality and best friend relationships, and if you are ready to become a more authentic follower of Jesus Christ and intentionally engaging with others, then our Small Groups are for you.

Please join Sandals Groups for a online community of the group types that Sandals offers.

The core of every Sandals Group is the same: being relational and being authentic. However, we have several different styles of small groups for different :

• Relational Discussion

  These groups discuss and apply the Sunday message. They occasionally use other materials in order to take their next steps.

• Relational Development

  These groups require a nine-month commitment to accountability and growth.

• Relational Healing

  These groups do serious work in the areas of drug or alcohol abuse, sexual abuse, or same-sex attraction.

• Relational Marriage

  These groups are for married couples have average marriages or on the brink of divorce, but want to take their marriages to an extraordinary level.

• Relational Outreach

  These groups minister to people's spiritual, emotional, and physical needs both locally and globally.

• Relational Study

  These groups go through the Bible or other approved materials as they relate to each other in real ways.

• Relational Leadership

  These are groups that don't just study leadership, but they actually lead sections of other groups for Sandals Church.
