Welcome to the Purpose Driven Small Group Network. The reason for the network is threefold:
- To build relationships. We want to make sure that nobody doing Small Group Ministry stands alone! Too often we meet people at conferences who are on their last leg in ministry because the enemy has isolated them. We know that when we have others around us doing similar ministry we can go farther. It is through this Network we can pour into you so you can serve others in your area.
- To share ideas. We all have great ideas. The problem is we don’t have a way to share them with the masses. We want to help Small Group Point People do their ministry better through an exchange of ideas and resources.
- To help us be intentional. On the white board in our offices is a saying, “Vision without implementation is hallucination.” Unless we stay focused with the task at hand, we will do a lot of stuff, but in general miss the ministry God specifically called us to do. We have found that through someone being in our life and looking at our plans, we are more effective for the Kingdom than when we are on our own. By doing a couple of Huddles between Saddleback small group conferences, we can help each other be more intentional with what God has called us to. As you attend Huddles and build your personal network, you will be more effective as a Small Group Point Person at your church.
We accomplish this through…
- Connecting you with hundreds of other Small Group Point People
- Huddles of Small Group Point People in a location near your home

There is no cost to join. This is truly a labor of love. Our passion is helping you to develop healthy groups. Our desire is to connect you to other Small Group Point People – so that nobody stands alone. Join us!
