Inhaltsangabe

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-explores these questions and gives you everything you need to know about small groups, including foundations, key components, life stages, planning, communication, conflict, leadership and more!
