Hmm, really thinking about Deeper for next year is hard......this year was fun, but i don't think it was as effective as it could be. Kel and sonia are thinking about book studies, i don't particular like that one, perhaps cuz i don't read. I dunno, i just want an open places for people to come and discuss things, but perhaps goin w/ a book brings out more than just discussion alone. I just don't want the book factor keeping people from coming, and looking at erin's IV group, i seriously dunno how many froshes are in it. We'll need to get a box of books for sure, cuz for us to tell froshes to get a boo, well that's a little pushin it (for me NEways). Dunno, just bless what we're doin, cuz i remember the last time i tried doin something like this.....it sucked. I tried to get people to bond (cuz having you in the picture wasn't even an option at that point, or so i thought), and i still sucked at that. I'd just like to imagine what would happen if i actually did bible studies.....would not have been pretty.....just did not have the equipping. This year has been changing, but i'm still not sure if i'm THAT different in terms of leadership from back then. Just help me Lord, cuz you know i need it, to have the words to say, to have the questions to ask, to probe for answers, to be friendly, and open.......As to how this group is goin to work, i really pray that you guide us on that part. I'm thinking more open stuff for first sem, get to know people, get a regular group coming, then switch to a book study for second sem, would make sense. I wonder if it'll be froshes again too, cuz i don't think first sem would attract (contemplated if that word was rite, but there's an element of choice in this) that many upper years. Really will have to see how many are in CCF next year, but if you have a way for us, show us....
