Excellent Tool for Developing Men's Ministy Small Group Leaders

The book is about men needing to be more like Christ in their interpersonal relationships using baseball as a model. From experience, I have found men who work on having godly male relationships also tend to have stronger marriages and families. Most churches do a fairly good job of telling men how to be better husbands, fathers, and workers but they do a poor job on helping men learn how to mature as a brother in Christ who can draw out other men into deeper more genuine relationships. Geoff Gorsuch and Dan Shaffer address male relationship issues as well as the process for growing into a contributing member of a band of brothers. Growing deeper in the lives of men as brothers in Christ is critical to making men intentional followers of Christ where they live, where they work, and where they play. I use this as the main tool for developing new men's ministry small group leaders.

Great introductory guide

This book does one thing well - it helps men understand the importance of being in a small group. It explains the process for forming these relationships and the benefits men can expect. Great for leaders.

A short helpful guide to beginning men's small groups.

This book is a good introduction for those who would like to lead a small group of Christian men. Gorsuch makes the process of starting a mens group and measuring its progress very simple, without being simplistic. The book is short enough to be read and absorbed quickly. After finishing his book I was able to write out my purpose statement for such a group and the basic plan to begin. I also found the appendixes to be helpful. Geoff Gorsuch has done men a favor by not writing us a 300 page book on small groups. His brevity makes the contents easy to digest and hence they are empowering. Rev. Don Nelso
