Small group resources
Bringing God closer to our community ...
We produce most of our own small group resources. We have also used the following and would recommend all of them
When God's People Pray - Jim Cymbala
Prayer can change lives and circumstances like nothing else can. In When God's People Pray, Jim Cymbala, pastor of Brooklyn Tabernacle, shows you and your small group truths about prayer that God has used to turn his own church from a tiny, struggling inner-city congregation into a vital, thriving community of believers who pray with passion, focus, and faith. See video.
Psalms: Prayers of the Heart - Eugene Peterson
The Psalms show us how to relate to God as we pray our doubt, fears and anger. They show us how to respond to God in praise. Here we find the best place to explore who we are and what God means to us.
Purpose-Driven Life - Rick Warren
The Purpose-Driven Life will help you understand why you are alive and God’s amazing plan for you—both here and now, and for eternity. Rick Warren will guide you through a personal 40-day spiritual journey that will transform your answer to life’s most important question: What on earth am I here for?
Mind the gap (Agape)
Mind the Gap’s DVDs contain all you need to run workshops that will allow your church to focus on its evangelism plan.
Romans: Becoming New in Christ - Jack Kuhatschek
Sometimes our worship loses its passion. Our prayer life becomes stagnant. We forget why we are serving God. And slowly, subtly, the world's ways become our ways.
The New Testament book of Romans addresses these problems, showing us how we can break out of old patterns and become new in Christ.
Square Mile is an Evangelical Alliance initiative which looks at mission:
Mercy: demonstrating God’s compassion Influence: being salt and light in the public life of the community.
Life discipleship: equipping Christians for missional living.
Evangelism: faithful and relevant communication of the gospel.
Giving it up shows how Lent can be a time for exploring a different kind of 'giving up', one that can transform our lives. If we are to draw closer to God, we have to be willing to give up some of our entrenched ideas about him, in order to see him more clearly. In a series of daily studies, Maggi Dawn shows how, throughout Scripture, people were radically changed by encountering the true God.
