Making Small Groups Work: What Every Small Group Leader Needs to Know

Summary: Worked for Me
Review: My life has been greatly changed by a men's small group that I attended through church. I was able to break through many issues that held me back in life. This book perfectly described the process that I went though. This is essential reading for those involved in small group ministries. It goes beyond theory and into practical matters of managing small groups to keep them effective and on track. Excellant examples of how to get the group to set rules, manage the members that dominate discussion and draw out those that always hold back.
Highly recomended.

Summary: Excellent Resource for Small Group Facilitating
Review: After reading through this book, I foresee using it periodically to take the pulse of the groups I lead (and the groups where I'm a member). The chapters are short and to the point, so that I can jump to a particular area where I need guidance in my current situation. Each area provides a big picture vision and then some practical ways to work out that vision.

I enjoyed these books as well: How People Grow, Boundaries, and Safe People.
