Mikel Neumann in the book Mikel Neumann in the book Home Home Groups for Urban CulturesGroups for Urban Cultures says:says:
“Two people were mentioned to us as productive home group planters. They had started three or more groups, and the leadership seemed a bit puzzled.
The woman was exceptionally shy, and the man had trouble expressing himself.
I was impressed that it is not outstanding speaking gifts that bring a new home group into existence. Caring and prayer . . . are the keys to starting
new groups. These leaders allowed other people to participate, recognizing that others had gifts that needed to be
used” (page 82).
