Thoughts on the 40 Days

Anchor finished the seven-week "40 Days of Purpose" campaign. Pam and I hosted a group during that time. We held our last meeting this past Sunday night (actually, our 8th meeting). We had a great time. While the book had a lot of rich content, I think a lot of other books could have been just as valuable (Experiencing God, Pursuit of Holiness, Celebration of Discipline...). The greatest value was in having everybody focusing on the same thing together, regardless of the book (as long as it's good stuff).

Plus, we've not been successful in getting small groups going at Anchor. This campaign exposed a large number of our people to small groups--we had 110 people in groups, out of an attendance of 130 or so. With positive experiences in those groups, many will want to continue in a small group, or at least be more open to the idea in the future. Everybody in my group wants to continue being part of a small group. We need to capitalize on that.
