About this title

Synopsis

<p><strong>What do we mean when we talk about small groups? </strong></p><p>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. </p><p>Small groups are about transformation, and inthis book transformation is given flesh and blood in the faces and names of the people you lead.</p>
