Have you ever experienced divine restlessness in your ministry? I am talking about the kind of restlessness that keeps you awake at night. Your mind races and you cannot sit still. There is no satisfaction in the ordinary. You have just got to break out of the box that has trapped you! You feel as though you will just burst. This is the time when you need to stop, take a deep breath. Focus. Think. Dream. Seek Jesus. Get a vision. Become missional. Find a family you can pour yourself into. Who is lonely? Is there a stuggling single mom in reach? Is there a new family in your neighborhood? Step out and begin that new small group. It does not have to carry a "small group" label in order to be effective. Begin with a Bible Study. Invite your neighbor to have coffee. Be intentional and allow your daily routine to birth a new group by reaching out to someone different. Break out of your box and look around. God has a new mission for you!
Life Together - Small Groups is a place to blog about the reflections of small group ministry. Find and share resources, humor, favorite sites, studies, and anything else that will edify small group ministries.
