Here’s a special word of welcome to all the group leaders from Temple Baptist Church, Parkview Baptist Church, and Dawson Memorial Baptist Church who recently followed this blog. Welcome aboard! I was honored to spend time with your church’s group leaders recently. I’m thrilled to continue a conversation with you about group life, teaching, ministry, and more here on this Sunday School/small groups blog.

Here are some links to articles you’ll find helpful as you lead in your particular ministry role in the church. I hope you enjoy reading these as much as I have:
