Extra Credit: Even MORE questions for your group time!

It's BACK! 'Extra Credit' is a weekly blog feature where I put a few extra question ideas up for you to use as you see fit. Feel free to take or leave these for your group meeting this week...

1. This is a very light opening question: 'What is your favorite kind of fruit? Least favorite?' This could be good if you have a new group that doesn't know each other at all yet...

2. Romans 12:1 talks about our old nature and new nature in terms of being transformed. What do you think of when you hear the word 'Transformed'? What do you think 'renewing of your mind' means?

Enjoy!

Speaking Out


I was honored this past Sunday to deliver my first message to our entire congregation as Pastor Mark and his wife were away for the weekend. I spoke on 'Group Mentality', examining Acts 2:42-47 and sharing with everyone what Life Groups are and three qualities that should characterize them, drawn directly from the early church.

What qualities, you ask? Well, if you were present on Sunday, you already know! If not, you can listen to or view the message on our website.

Incidentally, we post the sermon online every week, so don't hesitate to get over there when you've been away and hear what Pastor Mark is speaking on!
