Next Step is very important to us at Manna. It is the second step in our Growth Track program. It helps us all get on the same page by answering four key questions:
WHO are we?
WHY are we here?
WHERE are we going?
What is MY PART?

Why Growth Track Matters
Questions About Growth Track
How does Growth Track work?
The Manna Church Growth Track is designed to facilitate your growth as a healthy, effective follower of Jesus Christ. Wherever you are in your journey, the Growth Track can equip you to experience more fully your calling in God and your part in impacting your world.
Growth Track is a series of small groups that each last 4 or 8 weeks:
FirstStep (4 weeks): Manna’s 3 Values, 6 Applications, and the 9 Healthy Habits for a vibrant relationship with God and for discipling others
NextStep (4 weeks): the Manna mission to advance the kingdom of God
LeaderStep (8 weeks): Manna’s 12 operational principles + biblical keys to everyday leadership
Do I need to go to Growth Track to join a small group?
No, you do not need to take or complete Growth Track to join a small group.
What's required to complete each step in Growth Track?
Official Completion Policy:
FirstStep and NextStep: attend at least 3 of the 4 group meetings (make up a missed meeting by talking 1:1 with your leader)
LeaderStep: attend at least 7 of the 8 sessions (make up a missed meeting by talking 1:1 with your leader)
The way we do Growth Track at Manna is through a 4-week* small group experience where members actively participate each week. It’s part content, part group interaction.
While we happily share the videos and notes about the Growth Track content, those don’t count as “doing Growth Track.”
As we say at Manna, life change happens in a small group (one of the principles in LeaderStep), and we proudly embody this value in Growth Track. We embrace God’s design that growth is not a solo project.
