Quote of the Week: Outrageous Authenticity

“Small group leaders have the awesome opportunity to model outrageous authenticity.” — Rick Howerton

Authenticity is a staple of Christian community. When group members are open and authentic about life issues and sin struggles their small group can meet their needs, pray for physical and emotional healing, and relate to one another as equal strugglers. But a group leader must model these necessities before group members will be open and authentic.
