Description: This book is for anyone willing to gather in a coffee shop or sports bar--anywhere friends can talk about tough issues. Those topics that keep the pressure-cooker on family life, make us feel dumped on, or mess up relationships. Those things we can't imagine the Bible has anything relevant to say about--but we might be willing to take another (or first-time) look at. This book is NOT for those who've answered all of life's questions or hope to change someone else's mind. So, grab your favorite drink and jump in. Endorsements: ""The Gathering Place Series is a creative response to the Spirit's invitation for Christians to move outside the walls with resources that reach and relate to people who might not darken the door of a church. The reflection/conversation approach respects each participant's view, while at the same time engaging them in topics that can enrich their lives and faith."" --Steve Harper, Emeritus Professor of Spiritual Formation and Wesley Studies, Asbury Theological Seminary, Florida Dunnam campus ""This series answers the need for small group lessons for real people who wonder about life's big issues. Designed for groups that include both seasoned Jesus followers and people just investigating a faith journey, The Gathering Place Series is fresh, real, and challenging. A key component of these lessons is the opportunity for study groups to do service together and to use that service to connect God's story to their own story. I heartily recommend this series."" --Kathryn Smith Martin, Pastor of Small Groups, Pearce Church of North Chili, New York About the Contributor(s): Daryl Smith is team leader of The Orlando Fellowship--an incarnational, missional-ministry community--and associate professor of Mentored Ministry and Christian Leadership at Asbury Theological Seminary, Florida Dunnam Campus.
