How do you do cell ministry?

[Eprom]

I’ve just started a small group in my home, and I was hoping to get some creative ideas on how we can effective build our relationships in our group. What do you do for your small group?

good subject! There are a lot of resources on the internet that I have read through. I could give you some links if you like. I have never started a small group but I want to. I would be very interested to hear what others think.

I know it's late and I must do my own devotional rather than giving advice to others. But I would like to say, "Go for it by all means." I have my most wonderful brotherly fellowship in a cell group.

The cell I am talking about had 4 brothers (including me) and wives (not all had a wife). We were wasting our time for the first few months. One day a brother suggested that we read the bible through. We decided to read one book in 1-2 weeks and share what we learned at the cell meeting.

Immediately, we started to share our godly sorrows as the words convicted our souls. We started to pray for one another in godly concern. This lasted one year and we finished the bible. We became one in mind and became true brothers.

Looking back, that was my best brotherly fellowship experience. I still dream that I find another cell just like it. (We no longer meet since we are all scattered since then, geographically)

I recommend you to consider bible study, not that one teaches and others are taught. Each studies by himself during the week and share shame/joy/sorrow/innnermost thoughts/convictions, etc. The Lord will richly bless you.

Be transparent with one another.
We all have shortcommings and weaknesses.
Intimacy = into me see.

This may not work for some people who are not ready for it yet but one of the best things you can do is just sit togeather in silence, waiting on the Lord to lead you into the rest of the night... Worship, Prayer, Testimony, Reading Scripture...
