For those of you wondering what in the world we got going on Tuesday nights, the rules of engagement are below:
- No one is the expert, we all are allowed to say not so smart things. Bring your bible so that we can all back each other up.
- Man Code Issues: any issues related to a person's personal life situation that does not leave the group and is not shared outside the group. This is enforced by repeatedly yelling "MAN CODE" in a hushed tone.
- Friend Finding: didn't want to use relationship, because that scares men away.
- Faith Building: iron sharpens iron, we are not always iron, but we do sharpen each other.
- Prayer Time: We open and close in prayer and take prayer requests for the week.
- Bible Study: This time is really built on what God lays on our hearts to discuss. Its light, casual, friendly (see first bullet point). One of the best times we had was in Colossians during the Forgiveness portion of the study... I still think we haven't finished that one yet.
In Paul's letter to the Romans, he wrote..."I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to make you strong - that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other's faith." (Romans 1:11-12, NKJV) ... that is really what we do. Discuss biblical stuff so that we can be mutually encouraged.
We all have something to bring to the table to share to encourage each other in this thing called life. Come on and try us out.
