Her husband is a workaholic, more concerned with his family's financial situation than emotional stability, and he doesn't understand why his wife is unhappy. He doesn't understand why the house and the credit cards and the fabulousness of what he's given her isn't enough. So when Angelique meets someone new, she does something she never thought she'd do-she has an affair. It's addictive, and Angelique wants more and more, but is she willing to give up everything she has for this fantasy come true?

Sinopsis

In an era marked by Eucharistic revival, synodal renewal, and Jubilee celebrations, Fr. Michael White and Tom Corcoran—the bestselling authors of Rebuilt—offer a practical guide to revitalizing your parish through small groups. In The Transformative Power of Small Groups: A 7-Step Guide for Building Vibrant Catholic Communities, they show you how to foster faith-based friendships, which result in vibrant communities that not only sustain Christian love and service but also change the world.

This concise guide shows how small groups can become the backbone of your parish’s pastoral care, discipleship, and evangelization efforts. Through their signature blend of engaging storytelling—highlighting real-life successes and struggles—White and Corcoran share examples of how small group members rally around each other during times of crisis, challenge one another toward spiritual growth, and provide meaningful support in everyday life.

Whether you’re a parish leader or a dedicated parishioner, you’ll learn how to:

Understand the transformative impact of small groups on spiritual growth and community building
Easily organize and structure small groups for all ages and ministries, with minimal time and resources
Choose engaging content and resources that inspire participation and growth.
Launch and maintain a vibrant small-group ministry in your parish
Address common challenges and navigate obstacles to becoming a parish of groups with ease

With step-by-step guidance and three practical appendices—featuring scripture references, FAQs, and responses to common concerns—The Transformative Power of Small Groups is an essential resource for any parish looking to grow in faith, community, and mission, without needing a big budget or extensive time commitment.
