Groups come in a range of shapes and sizes but they all have one thing in common: they seek to provide an intimate environment that treats people as individuals, not just as members of a crowd. Young people are not all the same. Working in small groups ensures their voice is heard and their needs met. Small groups promote young peoples participation, development and learning.
Unlike many other models, small groups and cells are equally applicable in small and bid youth ministries. Whether you are working with six or sixty-six young people, the principles and skills remain the same.
Drawing on lessons from the ministries of Jesus, Peter and Paul, Danny Brierley shows how you can make groups work with young people. Practical advice and 50 tired-and-tested ideas will help you get started. All those interested in group work, and, in particular, cell church principles, will find this book helpful. Written for youth workers, youth pastors and church leaders, this book provides the principles and practice needed for growing community.
Danny Brierley is Head of Oasis Youth Action, consultant to the Baptist Union of Great Britain, and a regular contributor to Youthwork Magazine.
