Participant Interview: Karen Lopez
from Searching Inward Hosted by Restore Small Groups
In this episode of the Searching Inward Podcast, Scott Reall, Seth Abram and Anna Bryant speak with Karen Lopez about her journey with Restore Small Groups. Karen shares how joining a small group helped her navigate a transitional point in life with a new job, a new career in a new city. “I really resonated and what you were saying, I felt emotional listening to you, because it was really beautiful. You said you were committed to being honest, and you absolutely were.” -Seth [14:03] “You’re articulating so beautifully, I feel like, just the magic and the miracle of what happens in Small Group. There’s obviously a huge shift between when you walk in first night and when you walk out Week Eight.” -Anna [17:23] “I still think of myself as ill-equipped and underprepared and unable, and at a certain point, if I’m going to make an impact in the places that I am and I want to be in, that doesn’t serve me going forward, like those feelings of doubt and insecurity.” -Karen [20:17] TIMESTAMPS [00:05] Intro [01:05] This week's guest [05:25] A transitional point in life [09:46] The experience in a small group [17:21] Getting past the invisible wall [22:53] Examples of newfound confidence [27:33] A communal experience of growth and healing [30:02] Dealing with pandora’s box [34:35] Rapid fire questions [38:37] Outro Follow and Contact Facebook: Restore Small Groups Instagram: @restoresmallgroups YouTube: Searching Inward Podcast Website: restoresmallgroups.org
