Show Notes

In this illuminating episode of Revitalize My Church, Build Groups founder Adam Ehrlichman shares his expertise on developing effective small group ministries. Drawing from his experience of doubling group participation at multiple churches, Ehrlichman introduces a practical six-part framework for small groups success: discover, develop, deploy, connect, coach, and care.

The conversation explores how churches can successfully integrate small groups alongside Sunday School programs, with each ministry serving unique but complementary purposes. Ehrlichman emphasizes the importance of proper leader development, warning against the common mistake of placing leaders before preparing them.

Particularly valuable is his insight into how small groups impact overall church health, from increased giving to improved volunteer engagement. Whether you're considering launching small groups or strengthening an existing ministry, this episode provides clear, actionable strategies for building sustainable group communities that foster deeper discipleship and authentic relationships.
