Synopsis:
Build a small group ministry with 100% participation.
Want to know how to make your small groups work? Drawing from the startling success of small groups at The Journey Church, Nelson Searcy and Kerrick Thomas debunk the myths, set the record straight, and show how you can implement a healthy small group ministry in your church. Activate offers surprising answers to questions such as:
- How do I get 100% of my church involved in small groups?- How do I recruit and train enough small group leaders?- How long should a small group last?- How big should a small group be?- What is a good structure for small group ministry?- How do I get small groups involved in serving and evangelism?
Want to get the maximum number of people involved in a dynamic small group ministry no matter what size your church is? These practical strategies will produce life-changing results.
This book came at the right time for me as I started my own small group and wanted to really cultivate it. This book can best be used for a small church ministry, but seeing as my ministry is outside of the church it still works. This book is filled without a lot of tips, some I agreed with, others I didn't feel suited what I was doing. This is one of those kind "help" books that will reach everyone differently. For me I found the second part of the book to be more helpful than the first part. The model they provide is a good one, but for me I would personally branch off from it as my main small group model. Do I recommend this book? Of course, it's a good one to have on your shelf for your own small groups or one in your church. It'll be useful whether you realize it or not. Good read.
