Groundworks Ministries is a worldwide community of people who are committed to reading God’s Word together every day. We began organized meetings in a Southern California home in January 2005. Eventually, we started using the internet & social media to raise awareness and promote local gatherings, primarily in the Southern California coffeehouses of Orange County and the Inland Empire. Since then, we have spread to multiple communities in the United States, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and South America. People of all walks of life have joined us, all with one goal: to know God’s Word, to obey it, and to make it known to others. We are presently based in Memphis, Tennessee.

What we
believe...

We believe the Bible is the inerrant and infallible Word of God in its original text. We believe God’s Word endures forever; therefore, it is not culture that determines the relevance of the Bible. Throughout history, the Bible determines whether culture pleases or offends the Lord.

Reading the Bible with someone who encourages our Biblical pursuit is better than reading alone. Depending on where you live, there may already be Groundworks Ministries groups that you can join. These groups consist of people who are reading the Bible together “on the same page”. They meet at least once a week in order to discuss whatever chapter they are reading that day.

We believe that prayer is a function of God’s grace, in that He has given us the ability to boldly approach Him in order to worship Him and petition His provision. We believe prayer works. We believe there are things the Lord would provide for us, if we seek Him in prayer, that He may not otherwise provide. We believe the words of Jesus who said there are some things that are only possible through prayer and fasting. (Matthew 17:21)
