Leading a small group on prayer can be daunting. After all, it’s not easy to be an expert on the subject. When You Pray as a Small Groupis a resource that will help leaders guide their groups through developing a deeper prayer life. Used in conjunction with Rueben P. Job’s When You Pray, leaders are provided with prayer activity ideas, example sessions, and five session templates for groups with different needs and interests:

• Discussion-based groups
• Activity-based groups
• Introspective groups
• Arts-focused groups
• Habit Breaker groups

Through this study, not only will your group be encouraged as a whole, each individual’s prayer life will be enriched and strengthened.
