some thoughts on our time with Irene (all the way from Atlanta, GA) Oct. 25 from mb…these are the big ideas I came away with…things I was reminded of:
stretch yourself, stretch one another in love, closer to God, and therefore closer to people. people close to you and people far away. people close to God and those far... away from Him. dive into your (community group) life and/or all groups that you interact with thinking : what can I give rather than what can I get? get out of the way, let God work and be amazed.
a lot of ways your group life will ripple outwards will not be seen right away or ever by you... what are your thinking thoughts? (to quote a great late uncle of jim's...)Read More
