How to use this booklet and the accompanying animations
Welcome to this short guide to How to Pioneer. There are five sessions to work your way through. Use the material as flexibly as you wish.

The sessions are intended to work best with the pre-reading from the How to Pioneer book.
Alongside this Study Guide, five short animated films designed to accompany each session are also available from Church House Publishing. You can purchase these on DVD or access them online via www.chpublishing.co.uk/features/how-to-pioneer
This material works best if a small group of you are working your way through it together. You could gather people together who share your vision or might share that vision.

But it may be wise to reassure people that they are not committing themselves to anything more than attending these five sessions. These sessions will help you work out together what God is calling you to start and will help individuals to decide if they want to be part of this.
Each of these sessions should take no more than 90 minutes to complete. They are designed to be led by the group members and anyone can lead the sessions even if they have never done anything like this before.
