Posts for the Leader

Sometimes I’ve struggled with how much or how little to share personal as I’ve led. Whether we are using social media, sharing one-on-one or in a group setting, we need to be wise. I’ve always been a pretty transparent person, sharing what is going on in my life as I’ve led. But I also have tried to use discretion, wanting to be sure I didn’t hurt another person by what I shared. I didn’t always get it right. This is a great post by Carey Nieuwhof you must read: The Fine Line Between Oversharing and Undershare as a Leader.

I am recommending a podcast for small group leaders: Group Answers Episode 242: Agree or Disagree With Group Trends. I think you will find this interesting and helpful as you lead your groups.

I pray these help you as you serve Jesus in and through your church!
