It was our first cell group meeting. There was Victoria, a committed student leader in her second year of university; Paula, a new person in her first year of study; and me, the missionary who had arrived to accompany and train leaders. The other people who were invited didn’t come.

This isn’t what everyone is talking about, and I’m a little late to the read myself, but this is an essential article for discussion amongst ministry or eldership teams. Pastors, find someone to talk it over with, please: The pattern among fallen pastors by Garrett Kell.

Yes, I’ve watched The Lego Movie... Its famous song touches on something that we know intuitively to be true: working together, being part of a team, having someone to rely on and trust, is a good thing.
