debrief post

just had small group. the girls have gone. the dog is asleep and the house is quiet. mulling over the nights conversation.

we did an activity together. we each had several blank little yellow cards and we had a big red card in the middle. on each of the little cards we wrote a statement of christian practise (eg. helping the poor, getting baptised in water, tithing, reading the bible, loving one another, obeying leadership, loving God, speaking in tongues .....)

we then had to try and place each of the little yellow cards on the big red card. the most essential cards in the middle (the core issues of our faith) and the less essential cards on the outer. some didn't even make it onto the red card. one got ditched out of the room.

my goal was that at the end we would be able to circle those practises and beliefs which are essential to our faith.

if you did this activity how many cards would you end up with in your circle? what would they say?

we ended up with 2.
