“Need A Hero At Your Next Small Group?” by Donna Jackson
In this crazy chaotic world do you find yourself looking for a hero? Today seems like a great time to stretch yourself by organizing your very own small group. Everyday Heroes: Old, New, and Even You provides an easy format to prompt lots of good discussion. All the “leader” needs to do is ask a few questions to get things rolling.
Everyday Heroes: Old, New, and Even You
Everyday Heroes offers a unique perspective to group Bible study. Each of the nine short chapters begins with a snippet of fiction based on actual heroic accounts of Bible characters who quietly made a difference in the lives of those around them. Let your imagination be stirred as you step inside each scenario.
Section two highlights a modern day hero you may or may not know. Feel free to discuss the lives of others who exemplify the chapter topic, and be inspired to make a difference in your circle of influence.
Finally, section three of each chapter contains a biblical perspective to instigate your own exploration of Scripture, apply new principles, and discover your own significance in the lives of others.
To generate deeper discussion, the end of the book contains a thought-provoking Study Guide and Leader Tips designed for the first-time small group leader.
Make these rarely studied heroes part of your next small group, and be inspired to create your own heroic story!
