Welcome to the first annual Luminaries Curriculum Awards presented by SGN!
Each year thousands and thousands of people are transformed through small group discussions stemming from curriculum. Arguably more common and more transformative than book clubs, small groups engage with some powerful and incredible writers through studies and curriculum.
The Small Group Network is proud to present our first annual Luminaries awards for curriculum. This inaugural year will feature some special categories and voting to allow us to look not only at 2023 but previous years as well. Going forward we will be focusing on the preceding year only with the exception of occasional lifetime achievements.
While we are very excited about this first year, we have also come to realize how rich this vein is and how many amazing authors and studies there are yet to be discovered. The Small Group Network will be covering as many curriculums as we can but we will need your help discover new and amazing studies!
For this year, please take the time to vote for your favorites and join us online for the awards presentation June 5th.
