What is GROW? GROW stands for God Rewards Our Work. It is an Outreach and In reach Program that has been very successful in other Baptist churches. It is built around five biblical principals including the principal of sowing and reaping. We know that when we plant a seed we hope for a harvest. While not all seed will produce a crop, we also know that if we don’t sow any seed we can be assured there won’t be any harvest. Dr. Jerry N. Tidwell developed the G.R.O.W. (God Rewards Our Work) outreach ministry and implemented it in both small and large churches.
A product of Southern Baptists’ Life Way Christian Resources, G.R.O.W. involves a four-week training period and a 15-hour-a-year commitment to connect with members, visitors and people new in the community.
Under this proven-effective approach, church members are asked to commit just one evening each month to outreach...with several different avenues of outreach from which they can choose. And it's all backed by strong training that encourages and builds confidence in each participant .G.R.O.W. - God rewards our work. The five principles of G.R.O.W.

1) Sowing and Reaping
