From Jim, chapter 2

Utilize the general discussion maker as well as the daily guide to reflect as a group on where James is taking us. Find the applicability of what is being discovered by thinking through the principles as they relate to relationships, work, school, our family, our past, our motivations for what we do or do not do, etc. You may even consider using questions from the guide on a specific day to get discussion going on specific topics that seem to be resonating with your group.

Checking in with your group through out the week via email, facebook, etc. only makes this journey more potent. Consider praying for each other, finding a way to trade notes and to encourage each other to make the most of it.
