Small Groups
What modern Christians have come to call Small Groups or, sometimes, Home Groups, seems to some a recent, modern invention of the church. But that can only be because this practice has in recent decades replaced what used to be the commonly-held Evening Worship Service. But surely, it doesn’t take much thought to realize that believers in Christ have met in small groups in homes for centuries, sometimes due to necessity from persecutors, and often still do for those reasons. At other times, it was just the most practical way to have a local meeting. Many of you are a part of a church that would qualify as a “small group.” Whatever the reason, if you’re among a group of hungry believers who want to do a study in fellowship together, these books can render great help and structure to such meetings and help the leaders plan them.

Get Your Story Straight: A Teen’s Guide to Learning & Living the Gospel (Kristen Hatton)
What’s Your Story? A 52-week devotional.
We all tell stories to each other–stories about what happened when we were kids, stories about last night, and stories where we dream about the future. Some stories are funny, some are amazing, others are sad, but they all have something in common–each of us is the hero of our own story. Our thoughts, feelings, hopes, and dreams take center stage. But when it’s all about you, it’s also all up to you. You have to make life work, find meaning, and hope for the best even when you mess up or things go badly wrong.
But what if we were made for something different? What if the main character in our life story isn’t us, but it is the God who became like us and is now with us? What if being fully human means knowing him and growing to be like him? What if the way to be fully alive is to be caught up in Jesus’s story?
