Netzer Cohorts work at embodying this picture as pastors and ministry leaders come together decidedly as one church in a given geographical location. These Cohorts are where the rubber meets the road for the Netzer community: where we as leaders come not to lead worship, but to be part of worship; not just to care for the flock, but to be the flock; not just to offer ministry and prayer, but be to ministered to and prayed for by others. Church leaders need support. When we are connected, encouraged, and cared for, we are able to go deeper into worship of the one true, Triune God and thereby increase our spiritual capacity to lead our congregations and ministries. In order to effectively lead the church, we need to first be the Church.

…but about becoming an image-bearing people of God. As we gather, we worship the Lord and listen to Him together for one another. We press into each other's lives. We intercede together for our places of influence and the region we have been called to serve. We break bread, being humbly reminded together of our shared covenant in Christ, and the sole-sufficiency of the body and blood of Jesus for both our lives and ministries. We recognize that the Lord is helping and teaching us to form trusting relationships between us. We learn how to become a more faithful picture of the truth that we are one Church.
