Leadership Network invited several innovative small groups pastors to explain how they have broken the mythical—and for some churches, seemingly impenetrable— 50% participation barrier. Case studies of these leaders and their ministries address many important issues from different angles, primarily the church’s culture, selection and training of new group leaders, coaching, and curriculum.
