Equipped: for Small Group Leadership

Covenant Life Church's “Equipped: for Small Group Leadership” is a training program designed to prepare church members for leadership of a small group. Its goal is to allow pastors to equip prospective leaders with a basic understanding of the purpose, goals, and methods of building a small group and then to train them by practicing leadership skills within the context of the training sessions themselves.>/p>

God holds pastors accountable for the spiritual care and training of the members of their church. Their job is not just to teach the congregation and care for individuals, but to train church members with these same skills so that the church can grow and increase in both numbers and spiritual maturity (Ephesians 4:11-12). A well-organized community of small groups, carefully overseen by pastors and led by qualified men and women can move a church a long way in the accomplishment of these goals.
