Episode Details

Today, we make the case that if someone is planting a group scratch, start an ANYONE AND EVERYONE group! Why?

• There's a NEED for Movement!
• Multiplication requires FREEDOM; people need freedom from sin, groups need freedom to plant new ones.
• The more complex the group, the harder it is to multiply. Have less parameters (men only, women only, couples only) and you will have a more simple system to duplicate.
• There's a cost to discipleship (Luke 14:28-33). Will we sacrifice the good (our gifts) for God's great mission? (HINT: absolutely, because the mission to save lost souls is where the presence of Jesus lives).
• There's a natural order to discipleship (Titus 2). Older men discipling younger men, older women discipling younger women, but those lives don't mix until they find each other in community.

Men's groups are awesome. Women's groups are awesome. We love ALL our CGs. Please hear this as an exhortation to MULTIPLY and not an indictment of any other group type.
