Creating a Lead Small Culture: Make Your Church a Place Where Kids Belong

Every kid needs to be known by someone and to belong somewhere.

Most leaders agree. Thatâ€™s one reason for a shift in the way many churches are discipling their kids and teenagers. Think of it this way: connecting kids and teens to a consistent leader who believes in God and believes in them is something the church can do that nothing else in culture does.

CREATING A LEAD SMALL CULTURE, by Reggie Joiner, Kristen Ivy, and Elle Campbell, is for every leader of small group leaders. Strategy, best practices, training tips, and real-life stories from over 20 ministry leaders across the US and Canadaâ€”this book has what you need to create an effective small group culture in your church.

â€œIâ€™m fortunate to be surrounded by a staff who makes small groups for kids and teenagers a priority. Thatâ€™s why the principles discussed in CREATING A LEAD SMALL CULTURE resonate so deeply with our church. This is a timely work that provides a much needed blueprint for churches everywhere who believe kids and teenagers should be a priority in their ministry.â€
â€”Mark Batterson, New York Times bestselling author and lead pastor, National Community Church

â€œAfter 14 years as a lead pastor, Iâ€™m convinced more than ever that a healthy church is built around making small groups a priority. If you donâ€™t connect kids and teenagers relationally with great leaders, you will sabotage the future and faith of a generation. Thatâ€™s why CREATING A LEAD SMALL CULTURE is such an important book for your team. Itâ€™s a one-of-a kind manual to help every church create environments where kids can find a place to belong and someone who believes in the potential of their faith to change the world.â€
â€”Perry Noble, senior pastor, Newspring Church

â€œCREATING A LEAD SMALL CULTURE gives you more than just random ideas to help you do small groups better. It promotes proven strategies that actually work. If you are serious about discipleship and want to build a team of adults who invest weekly in teenagers, you need this book. So read it carefully, and get ready to rethink how you do student ministry. I learned a lot!â€
â€”Doug Fields, author, speaker, co-founder of DownloadYouthMinistry.com

â€œMy wife, Wendy, and I have seen the benefits of small groups up close. Our daughter, Jesse, and our son, Cole, have been greatly influenced through small group leaders who share our values and yet speak to our kids from a different perspective. This has been a huge blessing to us as parents. As a pastor, I highly recommend CREATING A LEAD SMALL CULTURE to anyone who works with kids and teenagers. This is a smart, sustainable strategy with enormous generational impact.â€
â€”Jeff Henderson, lead pastor, Gwinnett Church

â€œAs a parent, leader, and researcher, my goal is that all kids will be surrounded by adults who lovingly help them be changed by Christ to change the world around them. This wise book gives your church the practical tools you need to make that goal a reality.â€
â€”Kara Powell, PhD, executive director of Fuller Youth Institute (FYI)

â€œItâ€™s one thing to see the potential in small groups; itâ€™s another to create a church culture in which small groups thrive. CREATING A LEAD SMALL CULTURE is a must read for every senior leader and leadership team. In a masterful and engaging way, Reggie, Kristen, and Elle explain the behaviors every team can incorporate into their culture to see kids, teens, and families flourish through the ministry of the local church.â€
â€”Carey Nieuwhof, lead pastor, Connexus Community Church
