Description
Countdown: Launching and Leading Transformational Groups is a helpful guide for group leaders seeking to start a group or to improve an existing one.
When NASA (or other private enterprises) wants to reach the moon or mars, or accomplish any mission, they expend tremendous energy, enlist the best resources, and monitor every detail. They do this because they have a challenging goal and lives can be lost if they make mistakes.
The goal of a small group intent on discipling believers is infinitely more important and consequential. But do we approach it with the same intensity or care? For those leaders who do want to take their commitment and effectiveness to a whole new level, this book is for you. Based on extensive research, and the decades of experience shared by the authors in Sunday School and small group environments, Countdown is a comprehensive yet streamlined guide: How to start a group, and why. The types of groups. The various roles within them. What to study. Recruiting new leaders. How to arrange the chairs. And so much more.
