\"Conversation<\/a> Though each chapter of\u00a0Slow Church\u00a0<\/em>ends with \u201cconversation starters,\u201d questions meant to help prompt discussion, it\u2019s always been our goal to create\u00a0a more robust conversation guide. But we\u2019ve been running behind schedule on it. Honestly, the last few months have been busier and \u201cfaster\u201d than we expected, as we\u2019ve been blessed to travel around the country to talk about the book in dozens of backyards, living rooms, churches, conferences, colleges and universities.<\/p>\n

But now we\u2019re hearing from many churches and study groups that are going through\u00a0Slow Church<\/i> together, and so the conversation guide has become a top priority again. Below you will find a beta version of that conversation guide. It includes the first seven sessions (out of a total of 11). We\u2019re working hard on the final four sessions.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re releasing this now for two reasons. The first reason is that we\u2019ve been asked to by several of the churches, home groups, Sunday school classes, and Bible studies who are reading the book in community. The second reason is that we want you to help us make it better. As you utilize the conversation guide, we would be deeply grateful if you would give us feedback on how to make the it better.
