It’s no secret that we at Lifeway Women are big fans of small groups. Whether you’ve been a part of church small groups for years or are a newcomer to this environment; whether you lead, coordinate, host, or attend … you know the rich time of fellowship these groups provide. Small groups foster a vulnerability and depth of study that is hard to reach in worship services or personal Bible study.
Today, we want to introduce you to a website a team at Lifeway has been working on rigorously for the last year—smallgroup.com.
Smallgroup.com is an online tool for quickly creating and distributing custom Bible studies. Our team has built a growing library of customizable studies from all 66 books of the Bible and on more than 200 topics. If you lead a Sunday School class or facilitate a small group, you never have to start from a blank sheet of paper again. Here are a few of the ways people are already using smallgroup.com:
- If you’re a Sunday School teacher, you can put together a whole class based on any topic or text you’d like and make it your own.
- If you’re on a church staff and write small group guides for your group leaders, you can align the content to your pastor’s sermon series in minutes.
- If you lead women’s groups, you can quickly and easily create a women-specific study from any of the more than 1,200 Bible studies in this tool. (This one is our favorite!)
- That’s not all! If you are in need of a Bible study on a text or topic not currently available at smallgroup.com, you can “request a study” as part of your subscription. Our team will write it for you and upload it to the site.
Smallgroup.com has the power to change the way people study the Bible in groups. If you’re interested, now is your chance to try out smallgroup.com. You are invited to try it for 2 weeks for free. We think you’ll like it, and when you do, spread the word with other group leaders and decision makers at your church.
