I just got back from a small group conference at Willow Creek Community Church. It was incredible! We learned a great deal about small groups and neighborhood community. The original church in Acts was, in large part, centered in people’s homes around a meal. So the focus was on building a community in your home where you could fellowship with each other and learn about Christ and our Father. We found some time to go to downtown Chicago for some authentic deep dish pizza…my mouth is watering again so I’d better stop! We truly enjoyed our time of fellowship, learning, and worship with the small group leaders of our church. Acts 2: 46-47 “Day by day continuing with one mind in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they were taking their meals together with gladness and sincerity of heart, praising God and having favor with all people. And the Lord was adding to their number day by day those who were being saved.”
