All small-group leaders are participating in the practice of Christian Education, whether they know it or not. Even if we attempt to keep discussion and de-centralized leadership at the core of our groups, we are teaching something by the material we choose to study, the physical environment of our groups, and the way we go about the process of learning and growing. By extension, the same is true for ministry coaches and pastors. We are all teaching something.
So how to we make sure our teaching is having a positive effect? How do we make sure that group members are learning what we intended them to learn? How do we evaluate the system our church has set up to facilitate the spiritual growth and transformation of our people? Used properly, the tools contained in this resource can help you answer those questions.
