“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is -- His good, pleasing and perfect will.” (Romans 12:2 NIV)
Having our small group members become 'students of the Bible' is a noble goal, however we can focus so much on Bible knowledge that our small group becomes scholastic and academic rather than life changing. We become transmitters of information rather than helping transform lives. Knowledge is important, but knowledge without obedience does not deepen our relationship with Christ.
-- Dan Lentz, Director of the Small Group Network
