Cultivating Thriving Small Groups Study

At this week’s XPastor Seminar, you learned of the FREE Cultivating Thriving Small Groups Study offered by Dr. Ryan Hartwig from Azusa Pacific University and his research team. Ryan has extended registration through the end of next week, Friday, March 2, to enable all of you to get your churches signed up. Register your church.

Through the study you’ll be able to:

• Peer into your small groups to see what’s actually happening at the group member level
• Get a reality check and learn if your small group ministry values are really being lived out in your groups.
• Take the guesswork out of your next steps by applying data-driven insights to figure out what to do stop doing, keep doing, and start doing to help your ministry thrive.

Check out this video to see if the study might be for you. Not only will you learn about what’s happening with group members in your church’s own small group ministry, but you’ll help Ryan and his team learn what thriving small groups do and don’t do so that they can help all of us in churches around the world cultivate thriving small groups.

To learn more or to register, go to the Cultivating Thriving Small Groups website.
