Welcome To GroupLink

Welcome to GroupLink ! This is the place where we brainstorm and interact together regarding the value of community and group life. Andy Stanley and Bill Willits, in their book "Creating Community," compare community to the front porch of our homes, as opposed to the back porch. Question: What takes place on the front porch that doesn't happen on the back porch? What takes place on the back porch that doesn't happen on the front porch? What is the value of having both front and back porches, when building community?
