Letter that is in your letter loft box- with an addition.

Thanks for your ongoing ministry in this and other areas.

Here is the note you should have had in your letter loft box today:

SERMON DISCUSSION:  This week’s Soul Care notes have 2 questions that have your group looking at an additional passage from the sermon, James 1:2-5.

Additionally, I was talking with one leader about how to help his quiet group talk more.  This week's Soul Care notes have two built in questions to help with that.
For the two James 1:2-5 questions, you might want to give EVERYONE about 2 minutes to write down their answers (if they already did that tell them to pray the passage for 2 minutes).  Then have EVERYONE read the answer they wrote down.  Don't add to the answer.  You could even let them know you are doing this to encourage everyone to actively participate in the discussion time. 

PRAYER: This week’s Fighter verse is a great way to start off your prayer time.  You can go to blog.emmanuelbaptist.com and read the post entitled “God has made known His might among the peoples” for some help in making this connection.

SERMON NOTES: On the prayer side of the notes, I am going to put some reminders about Soul Care’s purpose.  This will be over the next four weeks and will reflect the main points of the four summer training times.

This week I am going to be posting some observations at soulcare-disciplemaking.blogspot.com about our first two months of Soul Care.
Be sure to check that site on Tuesday.
