This is the first...Thank you so much for this blog. This is the first time that I realized that we all only get one share. I guess its a case of the original CR leaders of our group interpreting the guidelines one way, opps and as a subsequent leader I have followed that tradition and didn't pick up that I also had interpreted the rules inaccurately. I'm looking forward to more time at the cafe.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6831552812314948942.post-21235791927079115112011-10-20T09:57:24.587-05:002011-10-20T09:57:24.587-05:00Thank you so much for this information.

We had obviouly been trying to "reinvent the wheel" just aiming at getting our participants/leaders to share on what really mattered not just the grocery store issues! And through you, this the Lord has brought us. I brought it up to our TEAM and after a month's practice, the leaders will be implementing it this Friday. It will be hard, we hate change, but we are confident God is in it. <br />Thanks for being used by Him.<br />faithfully held, <br />YthaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6831552812314948942.post-3384859250351486432011-09-15T16:15:09.480-05:002011-09-15T16:15:09.480-05:00Thank you.

It helps with my insecurities in leading a group to be able to say..

It allows me to seek out just what I'm feeling and needing to share. Just for today. Thanks Celebrate Recovery Bechtelsville Pa for following the DNA.

In light of Jesus' parable ...Well said, Rodney. In light of Jesus' parable of the talents (Matt. 25), it is possible that a group that allows double dips or sharing more than 5 minutes may remain small because the leader can't be trusted with more. Jesus tells in His parable that the Master was looking for those who faithfully did their task. Perhaps God is more concerned about the safety of these precious people and won't send them to a group with looser standards. It's best to do things the right way, even with just two people there, as preparation for the group growing. Do it right as a way of showing God that you are faithful and can be trusted to keep a larger group safe.<br /><br />Also in a practical sense, allowing extra sharing conditions the group in such a way that it becomes hard to change when a group grows. What if a group who runs 3 people suddenly swells to 12? Those who are used to double dips or more than 5 minutes will have a hard time adjusting. Better to prepare them for expected growth.<br /><br />Rusty Miller, PA State RepAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6831552812314948942.post-42108984566360696952011-09-01T00:28:24.711-05:002011-09-01T00:28:24.711-05:00I praise God for the rules of CR coming from years...I praise God for the rules of CR coming from years of traditional recovery.
