As
you may already know, over the past month, I’ve been doing some work at Harvest
as an intern. Being an intern is a great summer job, largely because you never
really know what you’re going to be doing on any given day or week. It keeps
you on your toes, and I think I kind of like that. Most recently, over the past
week and a bit, I’ve had the chance to do something that I can’t recall having
done before: writing small group questions.
This summer, we’re excited to do
something at Harvest Youth that we haven’t really done before. Small group
leaders will have the opportunity to work through the book of 1 Timothy with
the students in their small group in whatever way they want. One-on-one
breakfast meetings, group Bible study by the waterfront, or whatever creative
way that they can come up with. What Mike and I are doing is supplying the
leaders with the resources they need to lead the group through this six-week
study.
Now, as I mentioned earlier, I
don’t have much experience writing questions for small group leaders. Still, I
was excited to take on a new challenge, and it really was a learning experience
for me. Mike picked the book of 1 Timothy to go through for the youth group
because Timothy was, himself, a young person. From that perspective, there are
a lot of take home lessons for the young people in this book of the Bible. If
you have or know of a young person that might be interested in joining us in
growing in God’s Word this summer, send an email to Mike at
.
Please also remember to keep the young people who are going through this study in your
prayers, as we hope and pray that it will be a life-changing experience.
God bless!
