Fantasic small group model

Chapter 7 alone is worth the price of the book. It outlines a free-market model for a small group ministry. It is a permission-giving model, meaning that it invites church members to start their own groups based on their gifts and callings. The Small Group Ministry runs on a 3-semester basis so that people have the option of switching groups and not getting burned out.We've been using this model in our congregation for a year now and it's been exciting and fun!

Praise God for Pastor Ted Haggard!

My husband and I belong to a non-denominational church.Our Pastors received the vision for becoming a cell church & went to a cell church conference.The book and information we received were so confusing! THIS BOOK fits our church that really focuses on fellowship and community outreach! Ted Haggards book gave my husband and I an exciting vision of how the cell church could work in our church! Chapter 11 was and still is the foundation from which we built upon after our senior Pastor asked us to head the cell ministry!
