The Power Of Hanging Out

Some of the most powerful life changing moments for students don't usually happen during the planned, exciting midweek gatherings.

They happen during the unplanned times when you're just hanging out and spending time with them.

The things that students who used to be a part of my groups talk to me about the most are these times in our history together.

They loved the midweek gatherings, but they treasure these personal times together of talking and laughing one-on-one or in small groups.

Jesus knew the power of those times just "being" with the disciples.

This week schedule some time to go and just hang out with a small group of your students. It might be a moment they remember forever!
