As
one might expect Small Groups Made Easy
deals with organizational and pragmatic concerns in leading a small
group. Lokkesmoe takes a very realistic approach to dealing with
matters such as logistics, the role of a group leader, and preparing
for group meetings. The author is focused not only on the success of
small groups, but also on helping leaders to set realistic
expectations. The second part of this book includes twelve plans for
small group sessions which revolve around essential questions such as
'What is God Like?' and 'Where is God When I Suffer?'. Each session
includes a personal question, an open-ended spiritual question, and a
lead-in question. The sessions are organized to include a social
section, a study section, and a prayer section. One of the best
features of this book is that it includes information on how to pass
the baton of leadership onto others, a way of fulfilling the Great
Commission to make disciples. I am grateful to have received a copy
of Small Groups Made Easy: Practical and Biblical Starting
points to Lead Your Gathering from
Bethany House via NetGalley in exchange for my honest opinion. I was
under no obligation to provide a positive review, and received on
monetary compensation.
