Not Another Top 10 List!

Awhile ago I published on this blog my list of "Top 10 Worst Small Group Icebreakers," and they spread like a virus over the Internet and caused quite a stir. Ok not exactly, but I think a few people read them and a few of those may have even liked them.

So back by popular demand (if only in my own head), here is my new updated list for Fall 2008!

New Top 10 Worst Small Group Ice-Breakers

10. Which famous criminal would you say you are most like, and why?

9. What is your deepest, darkest, secret?

8. If you were lead pastor of our church, which staff member would you fire first?

7. What is your biggest pet peeve--of people in this small group?

6. What is your favorite white-lie to tell for why you are skipping small group?

5. What is your top 10 list of things that annoy you about our church?

4. Which couple in this group do you most wish would go join a Parenting Group at church?

3. Share one (only one please) of your spouse's secrets that they don't want shared, but you know would get a great laugh from this group?

2. What's the worst snack you've ever eaten--at this small group?

1. In the next election, who do you think everyone in this group needs to vote for (if they claim to be real Christians)?

So there you have it! Avoid these at all costs. And if you’re not in a small group yet—check one out! You’ll get to do a great ice-breaker if nothing else. And it won’t be one of these. If you’ve ever experienced any others this bad, post it in our Comments here and let us know.

Just so you know (for sure) that someone read your list of worst ice breaker questions...I LOVED 'em & laughed alot!!! I could actually envision group leaders accidentally using them & watching the stunned faces in the group wondering what in the world had they signed up for??? What a hoot! Thanks for sharing. :-D
