Week 31:

Crafting A Rule Of Life

For the first 30 minutes, please enjoy a meal together as a group. This is an intentional time set aside for fellowship. Eating together is a family activity, and helps us become like a spiritual family. This is one simple way we practice doing what Jesus did.

1/3rd

• Pray for God to train up the group through His Word and Holy Spirit.

• Ask: “What are you thankful for that God did this week?” (Have everyone share)

• Ask: Based on the previous 3/3rds we did (Have everyone share):

  • “How did you obey what God taught you to do?”

  • “Who did you teach what God taught to you?”

• Ask: “Does anyone need help this week? (meals, service, finances, etc.)

• Ask: “What would you like prayer for?” (Have everyone share; everyone pray for the person on their right)

• As season 3 wraps up, celebrate communion one final time together.

  • Read 1 Corinthians 11:23-28 for communion instructions. Follow the Lord’s pattern and examine yourself before partaking.

YOU ARE ENTERING THE LAST SESSION OF PRACTICING THE WAY. PLEASE IGNORE THE REFERENCES TO PRIOR MATERIAL.

Discuss:

• What is your rule of life? How do you want to craft it?

• Make a plan and hold to it!

• Set a time this week to meet with your “one,” in order to show them this video or simply teach them about crafting their own rule of life.

Ask someone pray to close out your group’s time.
