New group leaders often ask, “what can I do to make my group irresistible?” In fact, if you’re reading this, you’ve likely had one or more group leaders under your care ask you a variation of this question.

I love my small group. I’m not just saying that because I’m the pastor and I’m supposed to.

Just as we’ve all been called to ministry, called to give of ourselves to build the church, spread the gospel and empower disciples, Jesus is calling the people who make up our church to biblical community.
