Week 6:
SOAPS
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)
Focus on the Gospel: Read Titus 3:3-8
Have someone in the group play a worship song in response to this gospel passage.
Tell the group that everyone is to try to memorize the entire passage. You’ll have two months to memorize it.
Practice Instructions:
Have everyone read Romans 12:9-18 and do a soaps over that passage.
Then, have everyone go around and share their soaps.
For the next week, have everyone commit to doing soaps everyday.
Everyone can do different daily passages or as a group you can go through the Letter of James.
Think about who the Lord wants you to go and train to use this SOAPS Tool, then go faithfully share it. This is how we practice discipleship and make disciples.
Please end your time by praying for the group.
