Curriculum Suggestions
If your group is new, we require that you go through the six week group study, Beginning Life Together. This is a study that will bring your group even closer while also helping each participant to understand the five purposes and how those purposes should be incorporated into the small group dynamic on a continual basis.
If your group has already been through Beginning Life Together, we have a study you might consider, called The Truth Project.
1) Foundations Series for Small Groups
Foundations is a fresh, innovative small group series about theessential truths of the Christian faith and how these truths are to be lived out in your relationships, your character and your work.

The series is comprised of eleven different four-week studies, with separate participant’s guides and teaching DVDs.
SCC has a loaning library of these teaching DVDs for small groups and you may contact the small groups department at 200-2000 ext. 2244 or Deborah Sterud for more information. *Note: Participant guides will need to be purchased for each person in the study.

2) The Truth Project
This phenomenal 12 week, DVD-based small group curriculum comes from Focus on the Family. It provides a starting point for looking at life from a biblical perspective and will challenge your group to really examine the way they view the world and how they act on the beliefs they hold.
Each lesson discusses in great detail the relevance and importance of living out the Christian perspective in daily life.
The only cost for materials is approximately $85 for the DVD set. Accompanying leaders and participant handouts are available for free.
Please note: A member of your small group will need to attend training if your group decides to use this material. Contact Shawna Koon at 760-200-2000 ext. 2223 if you would like to attend a future training session in April 2008.
