Q: As you partner with God, how do your group members experience the “transfer of life?”
A: (1) Teach folk to obey Jesus’ commandments lovingly (not as legalism), while practicing the ‘one-another’ commands of the NT. (2) God gives the Holy Spirit to those who obey him. (3) Folk get happy in the Holy Spirit by obeying Jesus and serving one another.

Q: Concerning your equipping track, is it curriculum centered or seminar style?
A: (1) A workshop to introduce basic practices, (2) followed by a menu-driven curriculum, choosing materials that meet each leader’s cell group’s pressing need.

Q: Do you equip one on one or assemble all the leaders together?
A: (1) Mentor and coach one on one, two or three, punctuated with (2) occasional workshops or seminars.

Q: What [is] one mistake [of many] you have made in equipping leaders that you would like to share with this blog community?
A: Assuming that trainees will implement plans without regular mentoring.

The “transfer of life”………. giving away that which the Father has given you

I have in the past been involved in the assimilation process
for the church. My transfer of life was to offer love and acceptance

I am in the process of starting a small groups ministry at a church

This is REALLY front burner for me
A combination of a large Leadership Community meeting and very small
coaching groups is where I am at today in the praying and planning
