About this title

Synopsis

What do we mean when we talk about small groups?

And more importantly: what do we expect to happen when people gather in this way? The small group that wrote this book―made up of current and former campus ministry professionals with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship―sees a small group as: a community that studies the Bible, prays and participates in God's mission together for the purposes of God's transforming work.

Small groups are about transformation, and in this book transformation is given flesh and blood in the faces and names of the people you lead.

About the Authors

Seven people with backgrounds in InterVarsity Christian Fellowship met and corresponded over the course of a year to mine each other's diverse stories and expertise. They arrived at the principles and methods described in Small Group Leaders' Handbook. Alex Kirk led the small group, which includes Jay Anderson, Myron Crockett, �na Lucey-Lee, Janice McWilliams, Tina Teng and Sandra Van Opstal. All seven survived.

Jay Anderson is a senior campus staff worker for InterVarsity at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire. He lives with his wife and kids in Eau Claire.

Myron Crockett was an InterVarsity staffworker for nine years at University of New Orleans and Tulane University. The former director of the Katrina Relief Urban Plunge, he is now a graduate student at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. He lives in the Chicago area with his wife and daughter.

Tina Teng-Henson is an InterVarsity staffworker with Harvard-Radcliffe Christian Fellowship, and a Harvard chaplain.

�na Lucey-Lee is associate divisional director at InterVarsity Christian Fellowship in Southern California.
