Study Circles are small, private groups (up to 50 members) for discussing your findings before they go public. Think of them as optional peer review — a trusted space to get feedback first.
Circles are never required. You can always publish straight to the Rooftop.
Circles simply give you a smaller room to think out loud in first.
Create or join

From a reflection or sermon, choose Share with Circle. Your circle can read and comment on it privately.
"Suggest Publishing"
If your circle thinks a piece is ready for the world, any member can suggest publishing it. You'll be notified — but the decision is always yours. The author alone controls publication.
