Spring Week 9 - Fail-proof Pattern



This is our last official class!  Let's make it a good one.  Please come prepared and ready to participate. I will do my best to make it worthwhile for you.

We talked about inspired ideas and acting on them because we love and trust God and want to do whatever He asks. And we discussed how we should never lose sight of that goal as ideas come and as some grow and some lead us to different ideas. We will gradually learn to better hear His voice and discern His will as we seek for it.

This week we will learn a fail-proof way to seek His will and do it.  It works.  I hope you will apply it, I can think of nothing that will bless your life more!

Inspirements:
1. Be prepared to share something that you've learned this year that has blessed you're life.

2. a)Listen to this talk:
b) Pick a prompting you want to be better at following and apply the pattern in the video to see how it goes. Be prepared to share what you learned.

c) Help one another with your personal and project goals. Most of you probably forgot them during Shine camp so today is a good day to choose one and get going on it again. It may be wise to combine your personal goal with inspirements 2a and 2b.

3. Bring what you prepared last week about a battle line you are interested in learning more about and what you've learned (We will get to it this week! )

4. Write a quote and discussion question below.

Thanks everyone for a great discussion last week. I loved hearing your thoughts on agency and motivation. I hope you have been practicing some of what we talked about in finding the underlying fears that demotivate and countering them with love and sacrifice.

Please do the following to prepare for class this week:
1. Read Creativity Inc. Chapters 7-9
2. Last week, you picked a battle line that interested you, this week learn something that is going on in the world right now in that battle line and be prepared to share.
3. Help one another with personal and project goals.
