This is the definition of practical. The entire book is full of short easy to read and understand resources covering various topics regarding leading a small group. I believe this will be a great resource for our church going forward. I would like to place this book in the hands of all of our small group leaders.

I read the 2nd edition. This book is so practical and should be read by every small group leader, every small group pastor, and every senior pastor.

Bill does a great job of covering every conceivable topic when it comes to small groups. From starting to ending to what type of curriculum to dealing with difficult people in your group. He uses his years of experience at Saddle Back to reveal best practices.
