Great Groups
A Podcast Designed for Small Group Leaders. Great Groups are small groups that focus on making disciples, building community, serving, and living on mission. You may call your groups Sunday School Life Groups, Community Groups, or a host of other names, but whatever you call it, we want to help your group be a great group. We built the podcast to encourage and equip adult small group leaders at Brook Hills and beyond.

Start the Year Strong with Brennan Strain (Episode 115)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In Episode 114, Brennan Strain joins Jay and Chris as they all share ideas for starting the new group year strong following our summer break. We are introducing a new format that we plan to use fairly often - a mix of interview and color commentary. It's just more fun with more people, especially people you haven't heard from yet. Brennan co-leads a young adult group along with his wife, Kasi, and Stephen and Kimberlee Brooks.
Suggested document:
Brook Hills Small Group Values & Great Conversation - The first group meeting of the year is a great time to share this with your group.
Summer Survey used by Brennan's Group - We just built a sample in a google doc so you wouldn't actually contribute to their survey.
