Doorkicker’s question
Why is building real community in the church so hard?
Discuss 15 minutes
This was a trial of the 30/30 workout. This is a 30 minute workout followed by a 30 minute discussion of one question that is sent out in advance. This was modified to be a 15 minute discussion to stay within the usual 45 minute workout.
Something that worked well (IMHO) was to have a simple workout plan that allowed me to give instructions once and let ‘er rip. Also PAX could make the workout as intense as they needed since it was an AMRAP.
After 30 mins, time was called and we assembled in the pavilion. Both Z-Pack and Borg brought coffee, so that was enjoyed by all (even Shotgun :wink:). Thank you, men, for doing that.
We had all had time to think through DK’s question. A few thoughts included we don’t value deep relationships enough, judgementalism, laziness, lack of boldness, fear and insecurity, lack of common mission.
One word that came to my mind was “OPTIONAL.” I live like a lot of things are optional, including deep relationships.
DK said we should get our families together. Let’s do that, bros.
Also, somebody else run a 30/15! You are freed to lead.
Prayer by Borg, SYITG next time :muscle:
