Effectively Managing Small Groups

We had already gone through the effort of building a small group ministry at our church but were continuing to struggle with the many challenges we faced. Developing the group focus, recruiting group leaders, setting up locations for hosting the groups, aligning the purpose with your church, signing up members, helping people get resources they might need, creating marketing materials like brochures or video announcements, the list goes on and on.

How do you make it all manageable?

As we looked at discipleship and leadership training we began to see how small groups had many of the same challenges.  We started to see that, if we did things right, we could really help churches manage their small groups more effectively than any other option we found out there.

Once again, having a modern online platform would provide us with the flexibility to build small group formats that met the needs of our growing church. We could connect people in person, online, or anywhere in between. We could create training programs for group leaders. We could monitor activity and progress of the different groups, manage enrollment, and once we created the group structures, we didn’t have to print out a bunch of items or order a bunch of books.

As a bonus, we began looking at some of the resources we wanted to use. Talking things through, we set up our platform to allow world-renowned leaders the opportunity to build their training courses and share them with churches or small groups directly.

If you’re dealing with the many challenges and pressures of launching and managing small groups, let us help you create a manageable, adaptable system that will continue to grow with your church.
