I had high hopes for this small group guide. But I've found it uninspiring. We've been doing it as a study for the last 8 weeks and I don't feel I've done much of anything with it.

I really like Foster's work, but this is just derivative and didactic. Just read Streams of Living Water instead.

The structure of the meetings is very easy from a leaders point of view, but not very interactive at all, which I think a small group should be. ( )
