Throughout church history, small groups have played a crucial role in the health and vitality of a congregation (Acts 2:46-47 cf. Eph. 4:12). Not only do they maintain intimacy in a growing and well-knitted community, but they also help to expand a church's local outreach. Complementing BCC's corporate setting, Close Encounters aspires to edify BCC members/attendees in a private setting that fosters small-group participation and interaction. 

One-on-one discipleship involves a mature Christian investing a great deal of time, energy, prayer, and commitment into the life of a less-mature Christian - not just sharing the Good News with them, but developing a relationship where the person being discipled learns, grows, and draws closer to God. In this model, the person discipling sets the example whereas the person being discipled learns by way of mentorship (2 Timothy 2:2 cf. 2 Thessalonians 9).
