Burning Question:

Who should I invite to my new small group?

Jot down the names of people in your circle of friends and ask, "Is this someone I'd like to do life together with or hang out with for six weeks?" He or she doesn't have to be a person of faith.

At Lifetogether, we consult with many churches, and in some, 40 percent of people starting new groups invite those who …

  • Do not know Christ
  • Are new in their relationship with Christ
  • Are not growing in their relationship with Christ
  • Have never been in a small group
  • Haven't made spiritual life decisions

Inviting your non-believing friend to your small group may be the easiest way to share Christ in a non-threatening, natural, and authentic way.
