Discovering the Power of Small Groups: Our New Book is Here!

February 26, 2025

Here at Nativity and Rebuilt, we believe that real transformation happens in community. We’ve seen it firsthand—when people step out of the pews and into small groups, lives change. That’s why we’re thrilled to introduce our brand-new book, The Transformative Power of Small Groups!

This book isn’t just about small groups; it’s about the incredible potential they hold for spiritual growth, deeper relationships, and parish renewal. Whether you’re a pastor, parish leader, small group facilitator, or someone searching for more in your faith life, this book is for you.

Why Small Groups Matter

We live in a world that’s more connected than ever—yet people feel more isolated than ever. Many Catholics come to Mass on Sunday but struggle to find meaningful relationships within their parish. Small groups bridge that gap. They create a space where people can share their faith, pray together, and support one another in a way that just isn’t possible in a large Sunday congregation.

Our journey with small groups at Church of the Nativity has been nothing short of transformative. Over the years, we’ve learned that when people find their place in a small group, they don’t just grow spiritually—they stay engaged. They become more invested in their faith, their community, and the mission of the Church.

What This Book Offers

The Transformative Power of Small Groups is packed with insights, stories, and practical strategies for starting and growing small groups in your parish. Here’s what you’ll find inside:

  • The Biblical Foundation for Small Groups – Jesus modeled small group ministry with His disciples. We explore how this model is still relevant today.
  • How Small Groups Fuel Parish Growth – Healthy small groups don’t just strengthen individuals; they strengthen the entire parish. We share how small groups have revitalized our own church.
  • Practical Steps to Launch & Sustain Small Groups – Whether your parish is just starting or looking to take small groups to the next level, this book offers actionable steps to make them thrive.
  • Real-Life Stories of Transformation – We include powerful testimonies from people whose lives have been changed through small groups.
  • Overcoming Common Challenges – From getting people to join to training great leaders, we address the obstacles parishes face and how to move past them.

Why This Book Matters Now

In a post-pandemic world, many churches are struggling with engagement. Some people haven’t returned to Mass, and others are attending but aren’t connected. The Church needs to rethink how we foster discipleship and community. Small groups provide a way forward.

If we want people to grow in faith, we have to give them more than a weekly homily. We need to invite them into a deeper relationship with Christ and others. That happens in small groups.
