Sometimes true connection with others can seem an unreachable ideal—but it doesn’t have to be. In his book I’d Like You More if You Were More like Me, John Ortberg challenges readers to find connections in even the most ordinary interactions. In this DVD, Ortberg invites small-group members to share experiences as they work through the member connect guide together. With access to additional online content, small groups will find encouragement and practical ideas through Ortberg’s friendly invitation to go deeper in relationships.
