Description
Small groups, both house groups and cell churches, are crucial to the survival of the Western church. Groups differ in nature and function, and need different treatment. Yet there are fundamental similarities in group dynamics and the leadership skills needed to help them function well. After an initial survey of how small groups develop and work, Bryn focuses on the tasks and skills of small group leadership. He details the qualities of a good small group leader: how to prepare further leaders: the responsibilities of leadership, and the purpose and values of the groups themselves. He concentrates on key skills: reforming structures: leading discussions and asking questions: listening: handling tricky situations and evaluating the group.
