Do Good: Communities of Hope (Book Two), (Paperback)

<b>Deepen commitment through missional Wesleyan community life.</b> <i>Do Good: Connections of Hope</i> is the second book in Justin Schoolcraft's two-year small-group series. Building on the foundation established in <i>Be Known: Connections of Blessing</i>, this nine-month Christian small-group curriculum deepens spiritual formation, relational trust, and community commitment through Wesleyan theology and the historic Wesleyan-style group-meeting method. A Proven Path from Community to Commitment Rooted in the Wesleyan tradition, this book guides small groups through three rich thematic sections: Purpose (a kickoff session plus six sessions) follows the biblical story of Joseph as a boundary-crosser and explores five essential practices for missional living. Belonging (nine sessions plus a celebration) journeys with John Wesley, examining how communities resist cynicism by practicing radical hope together. Growth (six sessions) draws from the book of Revelation to establish habits for long-term sustainability and faithful community life. Designed for Deeper Groups, Deeper Life Built for groups ready to go further, <i>Do Good</i> supports 10 to 12 participants plus a leader with a clearly defined meeting order, no homework, no videos, and no outside preparation required. Built for groups ready to go further, Each session features short lessons read aloud together, a practice that intentionally builds vulnerability and empathy within the group. Deeply relational discussion questions connect biblical content to personal stories. Icebreakers and varied group activities progressively deepen care and connection. Special "Bedrock" questions create space for honest, vulnerable sharing. Personal journaling prompts support individual reflection. Each session opens with an "Orienting" paragraph read aloud to anchor the group's shared purpose. A distinctive emphasis on serving together moves participants from inward community into meaningful outward ministry. It is the natural continuation for any group that has completed <i>Be Known</i>. That foundational first book builds trust, shared practices, and committed relationships, which are necessary for the deeper spiritual and relational work explored in Book Two. Together, the two books form a cohesive, progressive journey that fosters lasting Wesley-style communities of faith. Flexible Pacing with Built-In Accountability Like with Schoolcraft's first book in the series, <i>Be Known</i>, <i>Do Good</i> has a nine-month timeline, and groups set their own rhythm. A natural evaluation point after the first six sessions gives leaders and participants an intentional opportunity to assess the group's health and readiness before moving into deeper engagement. Ideal for: Christian small groups, adult Sunday school classes, church discipleship programs, Wesleyan and Methodist congregations, spiritual formation cohorts, and anyone seeking a structured, relationship-centered approach to community and character formation.
