Who Can Lead?

  • Pastors
  • Sunday school teachers
  • Small-group leaders
  • Men’s ministry leaders
  • Women’s ministry leaders
  • Parents
  • Couples
  • Friends willing to encourage one another

A leader does not need to be a professional counselor or have all the answers. The leader’s role is to encourage participation, point the group toward Scripture, listen well, pray, and help each person take the next faithful step.

Suggested Group Rhythm

Present this as a flexible model that your group can adapt:

  1. Participants complete each day personally.
  2. The group meets on a schedule that works for them.
  3. Leaders guide discussion without forcing anyone to share private information.
  4. The group prays together.
  5. Each participant chooses an appropriate next faithful step.
  6. Leaders encourage progress without guilt or comparison.

Leader Responsibilities

  • Keep Scripture central
  • Protect confidentiality
  • Do not act as a medical or mental-health professional
  • Avoid pressuring people to disclose personal information
  • Encourage qualified care when someone’s needs exceed the group’s role
  • Make room for grace when participants miss a day
  • Never promise specific outcomes
  • Support, rather than replace, the local church
