I see that OuterEdge itself is a gathering of cell groups, apart from Christ the Rock.
Check out the religious small groups people can join after joining OuterEdge. Apparently some are face-to-face. Others may be online. I was not moved to register or join. OuterEdge is the company owning the former WELS church building where various denominations put on shows for free and also for specific prices. I am not sure where the ownership of OuterEdge overlaps with the pan-denominational activities.
Christ the Rock is using the OuterEdge. They also have cell groups to join.
The SORE uses cell groups because CG/Emergent Church considers them sacramental. When a Lutheran congregation gets involved in cell groups, the sacraments are reduced to ordinances and the church eventually becomes what it wanted to be - Mission Covenant or something similar. CrossRoads in South Lyons, Michigan (WELS) began and ended that way.

Just who are Ski and Glende? What are their stories? How is it that they remain a part of WELS? Apart from their affiliation little is known about either one. I do not know if they are real, or if they are an invention of an aberrant faction. They appear as a ludicrous couple, a grotesque reflection of ignorance, a fantastic new take on the bible, etc. How bizarre!
Yep, when the Sacraments are discarded, "it's all about me" is the only thing left.
