Now that the fall season is upon us, let's talk small groups! How can you foster and grow community among different life stages in your Bible study group? We've got tips for mingling different life stages in a way that benefits everyone.
Think about your friends from the past. How did you become friends? You shared something in common. There was a tie that bound you together. In every great story of unlikely fellowship, those people came together through some common bond and then were changed by the journey. Some shared experience or moment allows the relationship to grow. The key to growing community starts with connecting this common bond and using that as the foundation to build the structure of a deeper relationship.
Small groups that are based on similar life stages allow stories of strangers to cross at the place where relationships can flourish. As a group leader, your task is to tie the different narratives together into a shared story. This means helping people discover where they are in their stories, meeting them there, and journeying forward together. When people start to realize that their stories have purpose and that they matter, they begin to invest in knowing more and being more.
