Resources for D-Groups

Deciding What to Study Together

To start, each group will engage deeply with Multiply by Francis Chan. After that, complete John Mark Comer’s Practicing the Way Course—an eight-session journey into spiritual formation that provides practical tools, guided teachings, and

discussions to strengthen their discipleship. We also encourage to read along with the sermons the scripture ready plan each week to engage in the Bible together as you are learning about spiritual practices. 

 

 
How do the members in your group want to grow after the reading Chan and Comer?
Talk about where your group wants to be spiritually six months from now.  Do they want to grow in knowing the character of God?  Do they want to learn to share their faith?  Do they want to grow in their relationships?  
 

What are your group members' spiritual maturity?

How long have your group members been following Christ?  Are they newer to faith?  If so, some resources might be overwhelming.  Or have then been Christ-followers for a long time and want to go deeper in an area?​ Our resources are sorted by spiritual maturity to help you find a good fit.

What resources best fit your personalities and lifestyle?

Think through what is realistic to study together.  Is a book better than a series of videos?  Is reading a book a month possible given other commitments?  It's better to discuss one resource deeply and apply it to your lives then cover as many topics as possible in a year.
