Accountability Relationship Workbook
Intended for guided and intentional small groups (2-5 people) whose purpose is mutual growth in the knowledge and love of Jesus. We have developed an easy to use manual designed to help groups get to know each other and encourage each other’s spiritual development in the following areas: applying the gospel to life, making the most of Christian friendships, praying, profiting from the Bible, benefiting from the sacraments, and beginning to discover direction in life.
