SHARING MY STORY OF GRACE AND BUSINESS

While content can inform us, meaningful Christian community is what forms us. That is why we want your group to grow deeper in relationship with one another. One way for that to happen is for your group members to tell their story. This can lead to an incredibly powerful time of sharing the dreams that drive our pursuits and the struggles that deter our progress. To assist you in creating a space for your group to be open and honest with one another, please use this “Sharing My Story of Grace and Business” document to help guide your discussion.

GROUP ROADMAPS

Choose the road map that works best for your context. Beyond establishing your regular meeting rhythm, we encourage you to host a Watch Party for the annual Faith Driven Entrepreneur Live conference in September. This provides a kickoff to the next season of your group and it offers a natural welcome for new members.

FAQ

  • You can find each month’s video here. Then, simply scroll down below each video to find the discussion questions.

  • Yes! Below each month’s video you can find discussion questions. We also email 3 thought-provoking questions to every group member 4 hours before the group meets. Those are a great starting point!

  • We open the group to 12 people as we’ve found that to be the sweet spot for most groups. If you need us to adjust that number, just ask your staff contact!

  • Each group meeting is scheduled for 90 minutes. To get an idea how to use that time, look at the suggested agenda below each month’s video.

  • It’s always great to have group members who are willing to share, but sometimes the sharing can take over and leave very little time for others to chime in. In these cases, it’s always great to grab onto one key point the group member is trying to make and then redirect to another group member who has been quiet and ask what he/she thinks. You may have to interrupt the talkative group member to do this, but when you use his/her commentary as a launching point for further conversation, you are simultaneously demonstrating that you hear what he/she is saying while also showing respect for the time and opinions of the others in the group.

  • Check out this great overview from Zoom! If your internet connection is weak, sharing a video can be a challenge. Some facilitators find it helpful to simply paste the link to the video session in the chat and then ask everyone to watch the video in their own browser. Once everyone has watched, everyone rejoins the conversation on Zoom.
