Tools for Groups
Benefits of studying Soul Revolution as a group:
- Imagine the members of your Small Group or Sunday School class, not just showing up to meetings, but connecting with each other in meaningful, authentic ways about their own personal spiritual growth.
- Imagine group members having an impact far beyond your group meetings - into the lives of those they regularly do life with and others in your city.
- Imagine your group members learning what it looks like to live day-do-day fully available to God.
What an interactive online community can provide for your group:
- As people are starting the 60-60 Experiment, they need encouragement. While your group meetings can be a good place for that kind of encouragement, online community provides a way for people to connect with each other outside of group meetings.
- The blog community can further develop the connections your group members have with one another - strengthening their relationships.
- Using the online community also gives your group members access to powerful tools for spiritual growth, including the re:spond tool, which helps them better understand what the Scriptures say about what they're facing.
- If they choose to, your group members could also form meaningful new relationships with others from around the world. It's such a powerful outcome when your group members expand their support-system and circle of friends by meeting and interacting with others who have a shared interest or life-stage.
