The Little Book on Small Groups

Some may be wondering why did Mike and I write The Little Book on Small Groups. We have been working on this project for what seems like the last year. So the pieces of the puzzle have finally come together.

We truly desired to give pastors, leaders, teachers, and any member the tools that will help them to have a successful ongoing group ministry. These tools are based on a simple structure and can truly make an impact in your church's overall ability to minister and see healthy growth occur. We believe these tools are based in Scripture and not trends. We also believe that these tools have been seen to be successful time and time again in churches that get serious about making sure every person is connected in a small group. Please join us in this journey that we believe begins with just this simple little book.

Discipleship Triangle: Up-In-Out- Super Summer edition

I Corinthians 4:16-17 Therefore I exhort you, be imitators of me. For this reason, I have sent to you Timothy, who is my beloved and faithful child in the Lord, and he will remind you of my ways which are in Christ, just as I teach everywhere in every church. From Paul's words, we can see the encouragement (imperative) is to be an imitator. For this week at Super Summer in the discipleship sessions, we discussed what it means to be an imitator of Jesus Christ. To be imitators of Jesus Christ is to be rooted in Christ as we recognize the authority and lordship of Jesus in our lives! What He says (His Word), we are to do! Simple enough right? Yet this is the very thing that we struggle with, just as in a game of Simon Says, we can miss it if we aren't listening. So the focus this week is to stop in the busyness of our lives and spend time listening to God and then to see how this carries forward to everyday. The example that we use is the Discipleship triangle called Up-I

The Stages of a Group: How to build group cohesion

The Stages of a Group: How to build group cohesion How many of us when we start to meet with a group of people, we experience either a great connection or a flop? Often, we begin to look at ourselves and wonder what if this was really what we were supposed to do. Don’t worry, don’t get stressed. What we have found is that groups experience a natural outworking of how much they desire to stick together. The term is called group cohesion, which is basically how sticky they are. Larry Osborne has a book called “Sticky Church” and the process that Osborne promotes the most as to how sticky a church will be is through their small groups. Osborne says, “Anytime a group of friends commit to gather together to share their lives, pray, and discuss the biblical text and life application…good stuff happens.” The gathering together is how a group becomes cohesive with one another. What is interesting though is that this just doesn’t automatically happen. There are times
