In the dynamic landscape of a changing world, where shifts occur like seasons, small groups become vital for fostering growth. Fire Team Seven (FT7), comprised of four seasoned individuals with over three decades of experience in the warrior realm, recognizes that the future isn't won through sheer might. Instead, it's about capturing the hearts and souls of our neighbors. In the face of a deceptive adversary, FT7 invites strong men and women to delve into scriptures, extracting from the enemy what he desires most—souls.

As iron sharpens iron, the whole armor of God gains resilience through the unity of small groups. Listen in and learn how FT7 advances the small team concept by engaging in scripture and encouraging others to link their group with FT7. A Fire Team is a military concept that improves efficiency and effectiveness through connected and bounding small groups which overwhelm the enemy.
