Well, it’s not a new business and I haven’t {…yet 
…} published a book, but I did start a small group at church!
It was a bit intimidating at first, since being a stay-at-home-mom {who now homeschools all our kids} tends to somewhat limit the available time I have to physically meet somewhere once a week or so. However, I remembered another online Facebook group I was a part of last year and thought it might be a perfect fit for me. So I made sure it was okay with our small group leader and away I went. {I’m totally loving it!}
What started the idea was me discovering Mark Batterson’s new devotional Draw the Circle book on my husband’s desk. {Aha!} I felt the lil’ nudge God sometimes tends to send our way and decided to follow it. {Yup. I’m getting better at that obedience thing.}
So my group, the 40-day Prayer Challenge, began on February 1st, and each day I post a little something from that day’s devotional that stood out to me and then let the discussions/comments begin. I prayed God would do something incredible with this group and it would appear as though He is already at work.
Each day someone sends a request to join, and what is coolest-beyond-words is that almost half of the group is not even from our area. Super neat, huh? I love how God brings people together in community.
So in case for the next 40 {well…36 now} days I don’t post a lot, that’s where I am. Feel free to click and join!
