Small Groups
The Intentional Woman Process for Small Groups
The Intentional Woman workbook is a discovery guide combining both Bible study and personal and spiritual growth exercises. We designed it to be used in a large group setting with participants breaking into smaller clusters for discussion time or in an intimate home setting whether at the kitchen table or on the patio.
Effective small groups can range in size from three or four members to six to eight, depending on your situation. Many women are inviting friends and neighbors into their homes to experience The Intentional Woman process together. Kay Grove from Colorado hosted an IW group in her home and said, The setting in the home, with close fellowship has been a winner. Women like to share their lives, and they are eager to participate. This has been a blessing for me as I have prayed about a study in my home for well over a year, so this has been the answer.
What women are saying about experiencing the small group IW process:
The past six weeks have been incredible for me. The IW process has given me tremendous insight as to who I am and who God has wired me to be. Karra
I was feeling like I was in a rut in my life after my divorce and just didn't know how to get back on my life journey. The IW process reminded me God has created me and designed me with gifts. It helped me get my life in order and get excited again for God's plan in my life. Maua
The things that helped me the most were the personal stories paired with explanation. The wheel of life also had a big impact as I am very visual. It will be amazing to have this tool to return to again and again. Shelly
As a person approaching mid-life, I was beginning to wonder why I was doing so poorly handling all my responsibilities. This study helped me identify all the roles I was trying to fill. I could clearly see that as a slower paced individual I was trying to take on too much. Thanks for helping put my mind at ease so I can enjoy the person God wants me to be. Pat
I was surprised at how much I learned. I have a hard time putting my thoughts down on paper, so I really appreciate the examples you shared. I have already put some action plans into play and will continue to review with prayer, so I don't lose momentum. Donna
