How much does it cost?In light of generous underwriting by the church, a $10/participant donation is recommended for the Rooted Workbook and special events (originally $50).
When / Where do we start?Rooted Experiences typically launch around January and
September on Monday evenings at the church and occasionally off
site. Registration is advertised weeks in advance. New lifegroups
which do not form out of a Rooted Experience are encouraged to
use Rooted during their first year.
Does each participant need to register?We ask each participant to register for planning purposes.
When do I pick up my book?You will be able to pick up your book during the first session.
What is the time investment?During the 10 weeks, your Rooted group will meet weekly (about 90
minutes). The Rooted book also has daily readings which are
typically two pages and space for journaling. Two additional group
experiences happen outside of your weekly gathering (approx. 1.5-
2 hours each).
Is it okay to miss group sessions?If you must miss more than two sessions, it is recommended that
you participate in Rooted during a season when you can attend
more regularly. Your presence is valuable to you and the group.
May I join the Rooted Experience if I don’t attend your church?
One of our priorities for offering Rooted is to help our church attendees grow in their relationship with God and one another. Therefore, the Rooted Experience and resources are available to our church family. If you do not have a church home, we invite you to visit our church. If you have a church, please talk with them about offering Rooted or a similar resource.
Are there experiences which happen outside of the weekly gathering?
Three special experiences take place during the Rooted Experience. Two take place between weekly sessions (prayer and service) and one during sessions (participants share their faith journey). At the end, you are also encouraged to take an 11th week to celebrate the Rooted journey with your group.
May I get a book for myself or someone else who is not participating in Rooted in one of our church’s groups?
We are supplying books for individuals participating in our church’s Rooted Experience. Non-participants may acquire books through Rooted’s Website.
