Every small group leader has faced it—that one personality in the group who seems to dominate discussions, challenge every point, or drain the energy of the room. While small groups are meant to foster discipleship and community, navigating difficult personalities can feel overwhelming. How do you lead well without alienating members or losing the purpose of the group? In this episode of Disciple-making in Community, host Ken Braddy sits down with Ashton Wright to tackle this very issue. Together, they unpack practical strategies for handling challenging group dynamics while maintaining a Christ-centered, welcoming environment.

Ken Braddy and Ashton Wright explore specific personality traits—such as assertive, vocal, persistent, and inquisitive individuals—that can sometimes create tension in a group setting.
