The Different Breakout Sessions:

How To Measure Progress by Zach Imboden
Measuring your group/team effectiveness is the only way to know if you are making progress. But how do you know if you are asking the right questions and gathering the right data? In this breakout, we’ll help you identify the right questions and how to gather the right information to help your group/team move in the right direction.

I'm New To Small Groups by Lance Yarborough
Jesus walked through life and ministry alongside His disciples—His “small group,” if you will. Those closest to Him were marked by their relationship with Christ…and went on to ignite and profoundly impact their world. In this breakout session will discuss helping you either start well in leading or being in a group effectively.
Move: From Conversation to Spiritual Application by Jennifer Callaway
The opportunity to study God's Word together should move us from learning what a passage means to discovering how we live it out in each of our lives. In this breakout session we walk through the process we use here at New Life. Remember the goal in our small group conversations is transformation, not only gaining knowledge.
