Small Group Leaders

Recognizing that the life span of a small group has natural stages helps leaders and churches normalize transition rather than resist it.

"I wish I could go back in time and pull words out of the ears of my wife, children and friends, but in that moment, I was blind."

Church isn’t confined to four walls on a Sunday morning. Sometimes, it shows up in the breakroom on a Wednesday afternoon. Church small groups that meet at work represent a powerful shift in how we think about ministry.

Just as in the early church, a synergy combines the dynamic of corporate gatherings and the intimate sharing of home groups.

Leading a small group effectively requires an understanding of small group dynamics. By recognizing how groups develop, interact, and function, leaders can create an environment makes discipleship bloom.

Unhealthy small groups become cliques and destroy unity in the church.

Understanding how different cultures engage with church small groups can help churches tailor their approach for greater impact.

While small groups offer intimacy and accountability, can they truly replace the significance of gathering in Sunday church attendance?
