[The Christian Post] 19 Feb 2009--In response to the continual growth of small groups in local churches across the nation, Christianity Today International has launched SmallGroups.com, a site dedicated to connecting small-group leaders with the resources they need to have an effective and healthy small group.

"SmallGroups.com is a revolutionary way for churches to train small-group leaders and help them be effective in their ministries,” said SmallGroups.com Managing Editor Sam O'Neal in an announcement. “Instead of spending lots of money on study guides and sending leaders to conferences for training, churches can now equip group leaders using one easy-to-use website."

According to a 2006 national study conducted by Christianity Today International and publishing giant Zondervan, 30 percent of active Christians attend a small group or home group, and 61 percent attend a weekly Bible study.
