Small group resources tend to overlook the spiritual side of small group leadership. And yet most would agree that spiritual preparation is the most important aspect of leading a small group. Only God's supernatural power can draw people to the truth and liberate them to be all that God wants them to be.

The first key distinction of this book is the spiritual perspective it gives to small group ministry. This book is a practical reference guide to help small group leadership trust the Holy Spirit to guide and direct their small group ministry.

The second major goal of this book is to help small group leaders and members discover and use their spiritual gifts. The book examines each of the twenty-one spiritual gifts listed in the New Testament and offers practical insights on how to use each gift in the context of the small group.
