It gives your group members a forum to honestly discuss your underlying attitudes about money and to learn how to serve God effectively in this potentially rewarding area of life.

The early Christians pursued it in groups not much larger than your small group, meeting in homes for the first two hundred years of the movement. So whether you've joined a small group to know a few people well, to learning a more concentrated setting, or to focus your collective gifts toward a specific end, you are following a time-tested format for spiritual growth. The PILGRIMAGE SERIES is designed to foster spiritual growth in a group setting. By incorporating relationship-building material into each session, PILGRIMAGE guides will help your group translate learning into practice.
