Small Group Podcast is Coming Back!

After spending the last few months praying and thinking and planning and reading and everything else in between, I've decided to give this Small Group Leader Lifter Podcast another go!

The return episode will be online by the end of the week. As well, look for the return of articles and links on this site to help you in your role of Small Group Leader at Woodside (or wherever you may be!)
