“We've tried so many different products over the years... and then one of the things that just blew us away about using the Life with God content is... people really coming together and developing true spiritual friendships..."

Mark Warner, Lead Pastor
“Life with God is a thoughtfully designed curriculum that creates space for the Spirit to shape the heart of the believer. The teaching gently and skillfully opens new horizons in contemplating God’s Word. The listening exercises encourage new ways of meditating on God’s Word. Because the time spent outside the group is so well crafted, the community experience is full and rich without the leader having to force anything. I highly recommend the Life with God curriculum for those who desire to deepen their experience with the Father.”
Ted Wueste, Executive Pastor
“I craved a study that would strengthen and grow my relationship with God. I yearned for a community who were not afraid to be raw, exposed, and talk deeply about the Lord. I longed to discuss the struggles that we go through every day. Life with God helped me rediscover my relationship with God, how much He desires to be with me every day and every hour. I loved the way the study worked and the tools it uses. The questions it asked each week were very challenging and thought-provoking.”
Caroline Vongkaseum, Participant
“As a long-time pastor and student of God’s Word—including original language work, I have been amazed at the number of things I’ve learned through the Life with God studies. More importantly, the integration of activities, reflective questions, and group interactions have been used by God to have tremendous impact on my life and relationships. Life with God is life-giving.”
Make the most of your time in community.Life with God delivers teaching content outside of group time—reversing the common small group trend—so that the entire group time is spent in discussion and interaction.
Individual Work
Listen as You Go.Life with God uses high quality audio podcasts to immerse you in the words of Scripture and to draw insights for daily life—no heavy reading required. Podcasts stream to any device so that you can listen on your commute or around the home.
Guided Activities with God. Participants spend longer in prayer than in any other component of Life with God. Using guided questions and activities that are new every week, you learn to treat prayer as more than intercessory: active, responsive, and creative.
Community Meetings
Governed by a Covenant.Life with God groups abide by a covenant that upholds safe, honest, and confidential interactions between their members, similar to recovery ministries. Members design a personalized group covenant around the values considered most important to the group.
Leaders You Can Trust. Grafted Life interviews, trains, and certifies every group leader to lead Life with God. Small groups learn how to listen without “fixing” one another, how to communicate openly about their lives, and how to look for and follow God’s activity.
Each study includes a leader's guide, participant workbook, and podcast series.

“We founded Grafted Life Ministries to support those who desire to grow in relationship with God, but lack the resources to journey forward. If you feel the need for a community with which to practice these ideas, or are looking for ‘something more’ from your Bible study, then we invite you to get connected to Life with God.” Curt Swindoll, Grafted Life Ministries
