crazy love.

Several weeks ago, Heather and I were talking about our church's women's ministry, and our plans for the summer. I mentioned that I was missing the women's small group we had in Frederick - there were several of us, in all different places in our lives, and we talked about hard stuff. We used books and workbooks that required homework, and a lot of the subject matter was intense stuff.

So we decided, for the summer to plan a 6-8 week small group, and really delve into our relationships with God. We chose to read Crazy Love by Francis Chan. Each week, participants would be asked to read 1-2 chapters and come ready to talk about them, and then we would break into groups for accountability.

Last night was our first meeting - there were 8 women there, and I know of at least 4 more who will be joining us and just weren't able to make it the first night. And it was incredible.

Our discussion was great, and I think most people felt very comfortable to share (even though many of them don't know each other at all). Heather set up our accountability time well, and from what I've heard both groups went really well, too. I can't wait to see what God is going to do over the next several weeks.
