Manage episode 519234434 series 2498702
In this episode, Sam interviews Michael Kelley of the Rooted Network. They discuss three essentials that every great small group leader should consistently practice. These simple but powerful habits can transform any group into a place of authentic community and spiritual growth.
-
- Guide more than lecture: By listening well and encouraging dialogue, small group leaders can create environments where people are more engaged.
- Share group responsibilities: Assign key weekly tasks to people in the group: hospitality, food, follow-up, prayer, service projects. When everyone has ownership, development and growth in the group occurs more quickly.
- Leverage the before and after time: Life-changing conversations often happen in the margins, before and after the meeting. Wise leaders show up early, stay late, and invest in those relational moments.
