Andrew also serves as the Small Group Network's NorCal Regional Leader and has started multiple "Huddles." Listen to this engaging conversation between Host Carolyn Taketa and Andrew as they tackle common words (e.g., leader, coach, training) used in Small Group ministries and examine the intended and unintended consequences of those words!
