These items can be mixed or matched for maximum impact:
For example, to start a small group ministry, you might combine, Small Groups That Work, with an initial CareRing ministry introduction weekend and a training event.
Another common approach is to have all church leaders read CareRings: Sunday School and Small Groups Side by Side, and follow with an introductory weekend seminar for the entire church.
By far, the most powerful and sustained approach is to set up a 6 month Consulting relationship. This includes two visits to the local church with introduction and training events tailored to your own congregation and unlimited phone/email support for 6 months. See Consulting for more information and directions for scheduling consultation.
Small Groups That Work is an easy read that thoughtfully lays out the purpose, design, and stgrategy for the entire CareRing Ministry.
There is a basic introduction about groups including what healthy well-balanced groups look like. There are chapters on "What Small Groups Can Do", "A New Reformation", "Small Groups in the Sunday School", and "How to Make it Happen." There is also a Question and Answer section.
Small Groups That Work is ideal for group leaders. At only 85 pages it carries a big message for such a small book. Reading this book is the quickest way for church deacons or board members to catch the vision of CareRings.
For the more comprehensive book, all pastors and leaders of small groups ministries should read CareRings: Sunday School and Small Groups Side by Side.
