The million dollar question is always “how do I establish goals, plot my path there and keep my team excited, engaged and moving toward them?” This month, Steve Gladen, Global Small Groups Pastor at Saddleback Church and Founder of Small Group Network, shares practical strategies on how to do just that. From tips on carving out ministry goals to actionable steps to staying focused to accomplishing them, this month’s Group Talk is packed full of wisdom on how to prepare your team for a year of effective ministry!  Connect with Steve on Twitter @stevegladen.
