As such, the book has been written in a way that is beneficial for individuals, but to really maximise its impact it is best read in a small group setting. This small group resource is your guide and accompaniment as you seek to put the friendship principles into practice. It can be used in a house group setting, as a sermon series, or in any other suitable gathering. Feel free to use as much or as little of the elements as you see fit. The resource material works best if group members have read the relevant chapters of the book before coming to the meeting, as this can help frame the session.

The type of tool you'd like to use may depend on how open and/or aware of Christianity the people you're working with are. The numbering system runs from 0 to 10 with: 0 - meaning the tool is suitable for engaging with someone who has no interest and/or knowledge of the Christian faith. **10** - meaning that the tool is suited to engaging with someone who is now making a decision to follow Jesus.
