					<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Wednesday afternoon from 4-5 has become our time to meet as a team and discuss the bigger picture. What kind of things do we talk about?</p>
<p>Today topics included:</p>
<p>1. We opened with prayer.<br />2. The Saturday Children&#8217;s Day outreach plans.<br />2. An update on our project to make the church become more like a community center.<br />3. Some talk about a &#8220;date night&#8221; for each couple.<br />4. Some talk about &#8220;fringe&#8221; church goers&#8230;those that want to participate on their own terms.<br />5. A short talk on &#8220;Bounded Set vs Centered Set&#8221; thinking.<br />a) Bounded Set thinking = You are in or you are out.<br />b) Centered Set thinking = Are you heading towards Jesus, or in some other direction?<br />6. There were also many rabbit trails, and there was some laughter.</p>
<p>All this, in about one hour, and in two languages. I think that&#8217;s pretty good.</p>
