Love this, those are the kind of things we have on our "Description of a Discipled Person," we use it to make decisions regarding curriculum, programming and so on.

I echo pretty much all of these, but my favorite is #3, I have been saying that for years. I get tired of people complaining about cliques, groups of friends are natural and good. Certainly there can be healthy and unhealthy cliques (groups of friends).

#8 It's amazing he impact the gospel has in so many areas. Preaching the gospel will help if it is preached in a way that is true and clear. Jesus is the ultimate weapon against a narcissistic society. He selflessly gave everything for us, how arrogant is it when we keep it to ourselves. We need to be on His mission!!

We may not be able to use empirical data to measure the spiritual maturity of our group, but as our group grows larger that data along side our own observations and the observations of our leaders can be very helpful.
