I read the book and just needed to talk to others about my thoughts. It is a powerful book. I don't think you can read it and not be challenged. So I extended an invitation on Facebook to meet at my house to discuss the book....Yes, I knew it was a Friday night and there was a good chance I'd be worn to a frazzle. I was.
Yes, there was a strong possibility that my house would be a mess. It was.
Yes, people may or may not come. They did.
And we talked, and talked, and talked.
What a blessing. What a good, honest, sincere group of folks.
I pray that I will continue to be challenged and shaken out of my complacency. I pray that God will continue to work in my heart. I pray that my life will be one of authentic discipleship.

I wish I could be there, but Friday nights are nearly impossible for me. Last night I was speaking at a ladies' retreat for a church in Chattanooga. Next Friday I will be doing the same thing over in Hiawassee.
I know ya'll will be blessed by the discussion.

The group mentioned getting back together. It seems that Friday nights are hard for lots of folks. Maybe we can work out another night.
Your prayer is a good one for all of us. We all need to be shaken out of our complacency from time to time.
