Pastor Tullian:
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been in “accountability groups” where there has been little to no attention given to the gospel whatsoever. There’s no reminder of what Christ has done for our sin–"cleansing us from its guilt and power"–and the resources that are already ours by virtue of our union with him. These groups produce a “do more, try harder” moralism that robs us of the joy and freedom Jesus paid dearly to secure for us.Read the rest.
This of course doesn't mean that men's groups or other forms of small groups are bad, but rather, how do we go about facilitating the content of these groups?
