We all need instruction, endurance, encouragement, and hope. There is no better resource at our disposal than God's written word... the Bible. Each week in Connect Group we set aside time to discuss scripture together. 


Below, you will find Fusion's reading guide for all of our Connect Groups. A church that reads together, prays together, and does life together, will be stronger together.

  • 2021 • M.e. time

    We typically think of “ME Time" as a time that we get alone with our self for the purpose of seeking some down-time or some time to be alone. Our hope is that this will be a time of resting and refreshing our minds. However, more often than not, we are unsuccessful! That is because we cannot possibly reset our own minds! The only way to truly reset our minds—our life—is to Listen to our Creator.


    “ME Time” should never be just you, it should be you and God. Fusion City Church encourages you to set aside time to engage in intimate fellowship with God. During which, if you listen to God, you will hear Him speak to you through His Word, the Bible.


    Once you have spent personal time alone with God, you will be well prepared to have a meaningful discussion with your Connect Group. HERE IS A TOOL to help you 1) focus during your time alone with God and 2) help guide your Connect Groups discussions.
