Loving your God was first developed as a Lent Study course, but It can be used by any small Christian study group or discussion group.It looks at the summary of the Law, the commandments"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind and with all your strength. Also your neighbour as yourself."Each part is taken in turn, and I give my ideas. there are then questions to be discussed. The questions are open ended, as there are no correct answers. Time for reflection and prayer is built in.After some fifty years involved in many aspects of the church, and also as a Secondary School Science Teacher I have come to the conclusion thatLent groups and bible study groups are often dull.
This because the courses are of a format where a leader has the answers, and guides the discussion. This course does not do this. The answers are right for each individual. I put my ideas on what each part means, but you may totally disagree, fine,all I ask is that it is thought about. It is hoped to inspire thought and challenge, not give answersAs a Lent course, the last secton is an extra session for Maunday Thursday. But as it concerns another command it is worth studying at any time of the year.I deal for groups of about four, if eight are interested, then make two fours, let it grow!!!.
