Leading a small group may sound simple, but to create a growth experience and a safe atmosphere where everyone can share and learn takes effort and creativity on the part of the leader. You don't have to start a group and "wing it." Instead, learn from one of the best authors, Neal McBride.
In this book you will learn how to prepare, teaching techniques for small groups, the importance of good leadership, common challenges and how to handle them, how to develop intimacy without awkwardness and more.
It also includes a chart of "the small group life cycle" which is very helpful. Not all groups start small and then grow exponentially forever. If your small group or HopeKeepers group is struggling, don't take is as a personal reflection of your leadership.
Instead, read a book such as this (and some articles on Rest Ministries web site) to discover how you can be the most effective leader---and to understand that there is a season for everything--including your small group and where it is at in the life cycle.
