Groups Ablaze is a process, not a program designed to help local congregations reach out to their unchurched neighbors through small group methodology. Small Group activity has typically centered around nurture of present members in most congregations. Groups Ablaze is designed to promote outreach.

Ablaze! Living: A six-week study preparing church members to launch a variety of small group experiences designed to reach out to their unchurched neighbors. Materials for six weeks of meetings are provided, with additional six-week sets of materials available for subsequent meetings.

Seeker Series: A four-week module of small group meetings focused on discipling the seekers who have joined the group, followed by six-weeks of material designed to disciple unchurched and unbelieving seekers in a small group setting.
