As we have done in weeks previous, create some space for
your group members to share what part of the story they most attached
themselves to.
It may be an overarching theme.
It may be one specific point.
It may be one sentence.
It may be totally unrelated, a new idea spiraling off.
We don't have a lot of experience wrestling with a story in
discussion groups. We typically struggle unless we're given specific talking
points. So give them space.
Additionally, this is a great season to allow people to
discuss their own story. Some of the interviews we will be doing this season
will catalyze some real reflection of our own lives. Allow that to happen,
while leading the group to not let any one person monopolize the time.
Use the daily Lent thoughts at thebrightsadness.com.
Hopefully many of your members are using this daily reading to help shape their
thinking a bit for the day. Many of them will have specific insights about what
they learned. Know that this resource will be a great opportunity to speak
deeply of what's really going on in people's hearts.
