The 2-fold purpose of a cell is:
As a cell disciples and evangelizes, it helps cell members to grow in ministering to others.
Biblical Basis for A Cell-Based Church
No one has all the gifts., so we need one another. - both to grow ourselves and to be His witnesses in the world. The cell is there to surround you with prayer, keep you accountable in following Christ, and be a support to you during difficult and trying times. In addition, your cell group is the best place to help you to discover your spiritual gifts, and teach you how to practically minister to people using those gifts
.
You may choose the type of group that most fits your personality, interests or needs.
