You're interested in leading a small group, but you're a little afraid. What are you getting yourself into? How do you get started? Don't worry - you're not alone.

The first half of the book will cover things like understanding your role, organizing your gatherings, responding to shy or overly talkative members, taking care of your group, and much more!

The second half of the book is made up of 12 short Bible studies that include icebreaker questions, discussion guides, and sample prayers. These studies are focused on key spiritual questions that routinely arise in small groups, such as What is God like? How do I grow spiritually? How should I pray? Where is God when I suffer?
