Week 10

WEEK 10 TRAINING

SPEAKING TRUTH INTO EACH OTHER
As we approach week 10, remember this is an opportunity to point out all that you've seen God doing in the life of each person in your group. Do that through a personal card and verbally in your group time. Encourage your group to point out the individual giftings, character strengths, and passions worth pursuing in their lives.
  • "Jason, I've noticed you're super compassionate especially when it comes to the homeless in our city. You should get involved serving at a place like Fortitude. 
  • "Jen, you have no idea how much people look up to you. Embrace the leadership opportunities God is calling you to right now."
  • "Jordan, I know it's been tough to forgive yourself, but know that God sees beyond those decisions. He loves you unconditionally and is building something beautiful in you. I'd encourage you to continue to let him replace those ideas you have about yourself with the ones God is says about who you are now. Let him break down those strongholds.” 
Allow each person time and space to talk about what this Rooted season meant to them and then have your group speak these kinds of truths and encouragement into each other's lives. Then, have someone (or yourself) pray over that person. Use your discretion and your Facilitators Guide to think through what this looks like.

WHAT'S NEXT?
Your group may decide to continue as a Life Group. That’s great. The other options would be that members return to their original Life Group and others will join an existing Life Group. It’s important that each person is given the opportunity to connect with a group where they can begin to build community. Let us know what your group decides.  We will help connect those members who need a Life Group.

PREPARING FOR WEEK 10
Send a text or email to your group beforehand and prepare your group to think through one or two encouraging truths they want to share with each person in their group. Maybe encourage them to think of a word, a phrase, quality, or a passion that comes to mind when they think about each individual in their group.
