Community and Accountability189- People who will encourage others. We want everyone to
be cheered on. - Those who tend to be faithful. We want the group to
thrive, not dwindle. - People who will engage. We want the group to connect.
- Those with whom you’d like to build community. We
want to invest in relationships.
When considering how many people to include in your
group, think about the personalities you’re inviting and how
conversational they tend to be (online and in person), and make
your decision accordingly. An in- person group of six seems to
be an ideal size to keep the group lively, but also allows plenty
of time for everyone to share. I find online groups do best with
no more than twelve (unless it’s a particularly quiet group of
people). Also consider your preferences. If you don’t want to
spend a lot of time on your device in an online group, limit
your size so you’re not constantly having to keep up with what
everyone shares. It’s best to start small and add as necessary.
