Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does prayer smell like? One year of Bible study. One summer of Bible teaching. One book: "The Sensational Scent of Prayer."

As the smell of the constant, burning incense of tabernacle lamps became stronger and stronger, Hannah's broken spirit poured out words of desperation. Anguish flooded her body, disabling her voice. The tabernacle's perfumes waft higher into the air and Hannah's prayers trailed just behind them, soaring to the heavens, rousing the attention of her heavenly Father... The One Who loves: The Sensational Scent of Prayer.

Download or read book Leading Small Groups written by Chris Surratt and published by B&H Publishing Group. This book was released on 2019-05-01 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leading a small group can literally change the world. We have been commissioned to make disciples who make disciples, and Jesus showed us that the best way to carry that out is through small groups of believers. Just like the first-century church, small groups form the foundation to take the gospel to the ends of the earth. Chris Surratt, Discipleship and Small Groups Specialist for Lifeway Christian Resources, and author of Small Groups for the Rest of Us, wants to help you get from here to there. Regardless of whether you have never lead a small group or have been leading one for years, all of us want to know how to create environments where spiritual growth takes place and communities are changed. Leading Small Groups walks the reader through the stages of gathering, launching, leading, and multiplying a gospel-centered small group. There are also follow-up questions for discussion and reflection at the end of each section, and practical resources that can be implemented immediately by the small group leader. Jesus left his followers with a task—the Great Commission. This book will help small group leaders and churches in their obedience to this task.
