Go Big With Small GroupsGo Big With Small Groups:
11 Steps to an Explosive Small Group Ministry

By Bill Easum and John Atkinson (Abingdon, 2007)

Most churches that begin small groups find that within a couple of years, the number of small groups has dwindled in size and few, if any, of them have birthed other small groups.
