Bible relating

Last night in small group, the first one for the year, i started by asking "Are you reading the Bible at the moment, and if so, what has stood out lately?"

The question struck me earlier in the day and i figured it would be a good way to spark interest in any flagging spiritual disciplines. This week it was reading the Bible, next week will be another one.

To follow up, today i messaged the members of the group who were there with their suggestion on how they will "pick up" in their reading of the Word.

Each of the messages ended with the reminder that each relationship needs work and that this includes the one between us and God.

With the new year, and a new small group, i think encouraging others to work on that relationship is a good aim.
