    I am fortunate because Daren is in an adult class, and the class ladies include me in socials, so some of that need is met for me of “adult time”. But, I think the idea for community of having the group in a home regularly to meet and also fill the void so many feel when being involved socially only with the teens. Great idea!

  2. Jeremy says:

    My biggest question with this is, how would you do this with busy adults?

      @disqus_yaUpF5yv8y:disqus I think you have to find what will work in your context. It may not be (and probably won’t be) as extensive as Terry describes in his ministry. Start slow and small, build a culture that values and places a priority on community among one another.
