Bible study group meeting

In short

Gumb is an app for Bible study groups, home groups and small groups. Meetings sit in the calendar as recurring events, for example weekly or every two weeks, and who hosts or brings something becomes a task on the event. Bible passage and discussion prompts are ready as files, and every group plans in its own group scheduler, so group events are only visible to its own members.

From host back and forth to a steady rhythm

What costs group leaders time between two meetings, and how Gumb fixes it.

With all my hobbies I always had a big muddle. With the Gumb app I can see who is coming when, and I can also ask why not... The layout is very user-friendly and modern. I think the app is very good and recommend it.

FAQ: the app for small groups

How do I decide who hosts?

Create a task called “Host” and turn it on for every meeting. Members sign up themselves, or admins assign it. That way it is clear weeks ahead where you meet.

Can I add meetings every two weeks automatically?

Yes. Create meetings as recurring events, daily, weekly, monthly or custom.

Do other groups see our events?

No. Every group gets its own group scheduler, and group events are only visible to its members. Church events for everyone sit in the shared calendar.

Who sees members' profiles?

Each person decides that in their settings, choosing which admins may view their profile.

How do we find a new date for the outing?

With an event type called “Poll”. The answer options stand for the dates, and in the scheduler you see right away which one works.

Where do I share the passage and discussion prompts?

Right on the meeting or in the group folder. Files can be up to 50 MB each.

Which app suits Bible study and home groups?

Gumb suits Bible study and home groups that plan their meetings as events. Participants say yes or no with one click, you hand out the host role as a task, and every group plans in its own group scheduler.
