More DescriptionGod has provided people all around us with spiritual gifts that often go unrecognized and unused throughout the best years for their effective ministries. Each is especially gifted by the Creator for making small group Bible studies larger. In Making the Little Much, author Dr. David F. Felsburg shows how to find, identify, develop, and use these special people to prepare small groups for exceptional growth. Felsburg describes the adult small group growth ministry and includes detailed job descriptions and functional insights for each leadership position in those small groups. He also examines a biblical model in considering all the necessary ministries a leader might implement for the small group members; shows how the successful group can become a breeding place for the development of future leaders in administration, outreach, social connectivity, and small group leadership; and considers the natural temptation for the leader to burn out ministering to a larger group. Making the Little Much also offers techniques for maintaining the discussion and learning advantages of the interactive small group while allowing its size to grow significantly This study makes it clear that the Bible provides a model for organizing a group for ministry regardless of its size and that God equips the right people for the right time to support that ministry and its growth.
