Wow! We were blown away with your responses yesterday on our conference call with CCN. We were planning on 80 registrants – we had over 600! Originally intended to be a preview of the content of Mindy Caliguire's talk at the fall event, the conference call turned into a discussion on spiritual formation.  We talked about formation in general, in a group leader’s life and in small groups. (I will post a link here when I get in case you missed the conversation.)

And a confession? We made a decision to use Facebook and Twitter less than an hour before the call. We had planned to have a conversation on the phone with 80 people. That doesn’t work with 600! So we were hoping that FB and Twitter would provide a place for questions and dialog. Boy did it ever!

Our only regret was that we could not get to all your questions.

So here is what we are going to do: Bill Donahue, Mindy Caliguire and I are going to re-post each of the questions and start a dialog on Facebook. We have PAGES of questions from email and FB and Twitter, so we will be answering them a few at a time - the most urgent ones first.

And we will continue the dialog on FB before, during and after the event.

So visit us at www.facebook.com/grouplife or twitter.com/grouplife or use the hash tag #grouplife and join the conversation!
