Ask your small groups to commit to a specific long-term local service project. Find one your church is passionate about, and ask small groups to serve in different ways or at various times. Or, let your small groups express their individuality and unique gifts and choose a project where they can best serve others with the love of Jesus. Sticking to one project allows group members to become more deeply involved in the cause and better address a problem, and it creates relational opportunities among group members, who have a long-term goal in common.

The latest
How Does Church Planting Benefit the Sending Church?
Can giving away your best people be a good thing?
How Does Understanding God’s Happiness Change Lives?
As much as I believe in the holiness of God, I also believe in emphasizing God’s happiness as a legitimate and effective way to share the gospel with unbelievers or to help Christians regain a foothold in their faith.
You Can’t (and Shouldn’t) Please Everyone
Learning to balance the natural tension of loving and caring for people, but not allowing someone to leverage their personal agenda or hijack the vision of your church is part of the leader’s responsibility.
