Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve shared 7 things that I and my church has learned since we transitioned our church from small groups to missional communities. At the time, things were going great. We had over 85% of our adults in a small group, but it wasn’t producing the change, discipleship and leaders we hoped it would. So, we made the change to missional communities. Below are 7 things we learned in the process:
- Always Start with Why
- Get Essential Leaders on Board
- How to Handle Someone who is not on Board
- Leaders Lead by Example
- Remove Barriers to What is Most Important
- Prepare for Losses
- Celebrate Small Wins
