    Dissatisfied with your current small-group? You might want to check out this one. “We hate bad theology as much as the next guy. And we know the surest way to prevent bad theology is to avoid theology altogether.”

      Of course it’s shallow. Nothing but a group of white, upper middle-class, wanta-be cool types, getting together. What else could it be?

      “Of course it’s shallow. Nothing but a group of white, upper middle-class, wanta-be cool types, getting together. What else could it be?” .

      You’re right. Race and income are the determining factors of depth of relationships and spiritual growth.

      It’s not as if this satirical video criticizing shallow groups was made by the same “group of white, upper middle-class, wanta-be cool types, getting together. or that this same group of individuals created this video as a challenge to other small groups to not be shallow. Hence the obvious satire.

      Oh…..that’s right. It was created by that same group of people, and the shallowness was in fact satire. Maybe depth of relationships isn’t pre-determined by stereotypes of race and income?
