Introduction to LIFE
7th July 2009 by Jarrod Newton
Week 1: It's a relational thing. A look at the most important ingredient of any life group, and also one of Jesus' favourite teaching topics: Love.
Week 2: Promise keepers. Life groups depend on trust. Create a covenant agreement so that everyone is on the same page regarding group expectations.
Week 3: This is where I'm at. Honesty allows relationships to go deep. Use a simple survey to help start conversation about how people are doing spiritually.
Week 4: Healthy Community. Looking at the role that encouragement and accountability play in a healthy life group.
Week 5: Seeking God together.
Starting a culture of praying for one another.
Introduction to LIFE is our first 5-week series as part of The Salvation Army's new youth discipleship resource. Introduction to LIFE has been designed specifically to help new groups understand the purpose of life group discipleship and to establish a whole bunch of healthy habits and expectations that will help your group grow closer together and closer to Christ over the coming years.

Hey guys,
Just had a quick flick through. Well though out - includes really important stuff for any leader to pickup and run. Especially liked the bit about having an apprentice, and bringing questions, not answers to groups. Nice and compact! Great work!
