Accountability Groups
Jesus said - “From everyone who has been given much, much will be
demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much
more will be asked.”
Jesus shared many stories of accountability and told us many truths of
how we will be held responsible for what we do and say.
Jesus tells us these things now, so we can be ready for later. And
because we will be accountable to him one day, it’s good to practice
being accountable to one another now.
Accountability Groups are made up of two or three people of the same
gender - men with men, women with women - who meet once a week to
discuss a set of questions that help reveal areas where things are going
right and other areas that need correction.
Every follower of Jesus will be held accountable, so every follower of
Jesus should practice accountability with others.
