I have been meeting with a triad of men for many years ( lost track but over 7 or 8) now... the group has changed in make up over that time, but for the past 5 plus years, we have been the same 3. Both of the other guys are NOT from my congregation, though one was a while back. It has been a game changer for me. Wouldn't want to not have one in my life. We have done a variety of growth plans.... mostly reading specific passages of the Bible throughout the week and sharing our learnings. More recently we are working our way through Luke, using the 5 Q method that I like so much. And of course there is always time for sharing and prayer... we don't end without it! - no matter the time!
Recently, we added a new member and it is exciting! This is a long time friend of one of the regulars. Our new friend is a new Christ follower and is asking some AWESOME questions and pushing the rest of us to wrestle with positions and beliefs we have held. It is invigorating to rise to the challenges of looking at things from another perspective!
If you don't have a group... I would HIGHLY encourage you to form one! It has made all the difference in my life over these past 21 years of ministry!
