Re: missing link found between friendship and spirituality

It seems to be in line with the model of the Lord, who developed close friendships with his disciples and spent time with them. I suppose the small groups fad was supposed to be a way to develop a close-knit group of people who care, support and shepherd one another - what good friends normally do for each other. So, you might be right - that the emphasis of the small groups might go to developing close friendships rather than completing the study of the Purpose Driven Life or some such book.

This is a great opportunity for Christians to talk to their friends, relatives and work mates abt their faith. When asked, "Say have you read the Da Vinci Code?" we can come back with, "No, but have you read Purpose Driven Life?"

Hey DJ, I am jealous. I am past 44, and haven't yet written my first book! Heheh! I first encountered plotting your life story by taking Bobby Clinton's "Lifelong Development" course which included "The Making of a Leader" as one of the texts (other texts also included a more technical reference work of his, and a few "applied" texts. It is a good exercise, and I especially like the way Clinton divided the lifelong journey of God's development program into five distinct stages. I highly recommend the course (available from FullerOnline), or at the very least, the book.

As long as we think multiculturalism is merely multiracialism, it will not go very far beyond numbers, quotas and statistics. We must take it one step further, I believe.

I have used hoovers.com to find out about corporations I try to sell to. I am sure that there are other tools too. To really get the information you want though, these tools costs $$$
