Great Small Group


Two weeks ago we started small group meetings on Monday nights. This week was GREAT! We're covering a core value each week. This is not for the faint of heart. Core values have to be emotional. If they're not, then they're not really core values. Core values form the matrix through which all decisions and actions are determined. They are the non-negotiables that say, "If we don't do play by these rules, we're playing the game wrong." This week was the value: Cultivating Community Connection. Some emotional discussion/debate insued. I loved it. Not for the sake of conflict, but because I'd rather deal with conflict now as we establish our DNA, then deal with it for the next 20 years because we never nailed it down.

I want to encourage everyone to keep it up. See you next week.
