TIP OF THE MONTH - HOW TO MAKE YOUR MEETINGS MORE INTERESTING


Ways to Keep Your Meetings Interesting
Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. Acts 2:46-47

Why did people enjoy meeting so often? What interested them? In Acts we have the model to follow.
During the past several months we have been sharing monthly tips for small group leaders to encourage the Core Values, such as:  Caring Community, Spiritual Transformation, Compassionate Outreach and Service Projects. 

Small group leaders need to keep your meetings interesting.  Recently a training meeting was held which outlined some ideas:
FACILITATING  DYNAMIC  DISCUSSION

A leader ACTS to facilitate discussions by:
A – Acknowledging everyone who speaks

C – Clarifying what is being said and felt
T – Turning it back to the group as a means of generating discussion

S  -  Summarizing what has been said
In future Tipsters more ideas will be shared to keep your meetings interesting.  Facilitate Dynamic Discussion in your group by using these ideas for dynamic results!
