Ideas for leading:

• Go over 5 "Smooth Stones" elements of church: Worship, Discipleship, Member care, Evangelism near and far, Compassion
  
• Work in series of 3-4 weeks on, 1 off for "fun night". One topic for this whole time.
  
• Make a graphic organizer calendar and plan 3 months in advance.
• Theological Bible Study
• Character Studies
• Tough Questions Study
• Lectio Divina, Devotional practice
• Genograms/family history

Questions for the group leader:

• How are you leading yourself?
• What are you reading these days?
• What are the gifts of the group members?
• Who has leadership potential?
• How is delegation for discussion, hosting, worship, outreach, etc?
