How We Choose Small Group Leaders

The harvest is plenteous, but leaders are few (Luke 10:2).

Time is of the essence right now because these groups are dividing quickly.

Leaders like you are needed.

Below are the steps you can take to be equipped and prepared to lead a small group effectively.

STEP 4:

Devotional Document on Small Groups

Devotional Document

This study goes through what God's Word says about evangelism in small groups, and will inspire you beyond where you are now.

You'll understand the New Testament model for evangelism.

It's vital to understand what God's Word says on the subject, so we can know that what we are doing is exactly what God has instructed us to do.

STEP 5:

Understand the Vision

Vision Book

Those who read this resource will take priority when it comes to who we decide will be the next leaders, because they understand the vision more than anyone else.

This Small Group Leadership book by the pastor of the world's largest congregation casts the vision for the small groups better and faster than we ever could.

By reading it, you'll understand why we're doing what we're doing, and how to do it properly. You'll be prepared to face the challenges that may come your way as a small group leader.

STEP 6:

Attend Weekly Evangelism Training

We believe evangelism skills are more caught rather than taught.

Therefore we recognized that in order to create an organization that develops people who develop others, we needed to provide an opportunity for others to be around leaders who are actively solving real problems, overcoming evangelism obstacles, and engaged daily in developing other leaders.

This is a valuable part of every Squad leader's training. We get to see what's really working and work together to share solutions to the problems we're specifically facing in the Squads.

We're offering you an open invitation to come every Thursday at 9 AM PST on our Discord server to sit down and discuss with other leaders on subjects that will help you develop your leadership ability regardless of what organization you're leading.

This weekly Evangelism Training is where Squad transformation takes place.

Only come if you want to cultivate your evangelism ability by surrounding yourself with accomplished leaders who are passionate about helping you successfully experience your infinite potential in Christ Jesus.
