Dream:

Dream of Leading a Healthy, Growing, Multiplying Group

A. Having a dream increases potential

. Satan wants to keep small group leaders as sleeping giants.  He will constantly whisper lies to small group leaders about what they can't do.  Discouragement and disillusionment is part of his strategy to keep us from Gods best for our lives.

. A dream of what God can do and the difference a small group can make in peoples lives helps drive our faith.

Living for something greater than ourselves (a transcendental cause) is something to live for and strive towards.

ex: The Methodist church traces its roots to a small group that met at Oxford University.  The Methodist church today has 11 million members.

Small groups can be the spiritual hospitals for the hurting and the hothouses for spiritual growth.

Dream the dream of leading a healthy, growing, multiplying group.  Dream of leading your group to multiply every year.  Believe that God can use your small group to make a big difference.
