Fifteen years ago resources for leading a healthy GroupLife Community were difficult to come by. Today, however, they are everywhere. In fact, there’s so much material out there now, sorting through all of it to find the best can be overwhelming. Let me help out a bit by giving you a brief list of some of the best resources for leading GroupLife in your local Church:

Small Group Leadership Development and Training

• Simple Small Groups by Bill Search
• Making Small Groups Work by Dr. Henry Cloud & Dr. John Townsend
• Leading Life-Changing Small Groups by Bill Donahue
• ReGroup by Henry Cloud, John Townsend and Bill Donahue

Small Group Strategy and Structure

• Activate by Nelson Searcy and Kerrick Thomas
• Building a Church of Small Groups by Bill Donahue and Russ Robinson
• The Seven Deadly Sins of Small Group Ministry by Bill Donahue and Russ Robinson
• Creating Community by Andy Stanley and Bill Willits

Small Group Theology and Foundations

• Community that is Christian by Julie A. Gorman
• Biblical Foundations for Small Group Ministry by Gareth Icenogle

With so many great resources available these days, there are probably a dozen others I could add to the list, but these are some of the best of the best.
