RG: Small Groups—Big Benefit

Summary: Using Lydia's conversion in Acts 16 as an example, Dana Porter points to the efficacy of small groups. You belong more and get better connections with people. 

Response: I'm starting to read (a book) The Power of Ritual by Casper ter Kuile, which has a focus of feeling connected. While I'm uncertain that's the takeaway I would've made from this passage, maybe I should find this more often.

RG: Faithful to Me

Summary: Citing the beginning of Psalm 116, Sarah Kinzer notes the personal nature of God's faithfulness. 

Response: I mean, the most effective tool for evangelizing is the testimony. And you don't even have to have done crazy, terrible things. Because God transcends how awful (or not) we are with how amazing He is.
