Over the past two decades, small groups have gone from spontaneous
gatherings among friends to a major and elaborate phenomenon in the
church. Many evangelical churches have some form of small groups
ministry in place. But there's just one problem, says Bill Search--what
started as a simple get-together has become a complicated process,
especially for small group leaders. They are often not sure what is
expected of them or what to expect from their groups as a result of
their efforts.
In Simple Small Groups, Search lays out the three C's of small
groups--connecting, changing, and cultivating. This paradigm helps to
simplify leading small groups in a way that is helpful, rewarding, and
life changing. Unlike many other books geared toward small group
leaders, Simple Small Groups does not require a church-wide adoption
of an intricately designed system of assimilation, making it useful to
any small group leader looking for guidance.
