Thank you for your "yes" or even your "maybe".
It is my sincere prayer that you will be abundantly blessed by your decision to help others experience greater joy by placing more value, focus and priority on the health of their souls. Our world prioritizes the body, physical pleasures and earthly attachments over the invisible soul. This seven week exploration will guide readers to become contemplative and invest more in life affirming activities that better meet the needs of their soul--areas that bring extraordinary and lasting peace. This structure will not be overly time consuming. The end of chapter exercises in each chapter are really easy reflections. One chapter, 4 scripture passages, one optional activity and some commitment exercises. This lent study is a very small investment of time for a significant outpouring of grace.
Since this is more of a spiritual book study--the need to facilitate and drive communication for each session will not be necessary. Please don't feel the pressure to lead---you'll just guide the process. God's job is to lead! There are however, some helpful "to dos" that will enhance the experience for all. The most important thing you can do right now is to pray for those that God wants to be part of your group. Be sure to really listen carefully as His recommendations may surprise you.
If you are reading this then you are one of the first 12 Compass Club book club "soul" guides. I feel you have been called to do this. Your names have been on my heart for weeks since the book was published in November. God already knows the plans He has for all of us.
I feel humbled and honored He's chosen such magnificent souls to guide my own journey of faith.
Peace!
