Follow up again with everyone in your group to thank them for coming and to invite them back for Week Four.

Encourage everyone to continue reading their daily devotional and to prioritize the weekend messages. If anyone missed the group, be sure to reach out to them to see if they need anything.

Pray that people would come back to the group and begin opening up during the discussion even more. Pray that God would grow everyone’s level of excitement and expectation for God to do a miracle.

Continue to pray that God would speak to people, and that they would obey what He says. Finally, pray that each person in your group would be prepared spiritually for the “Pledge Sunday” coming up.

Congratulations, you are already half way through the study! At this point, the people in your group should be getting comfortable with each other and starting to open up more. Hopefully, everyone is also getting excited about the Beyond Kids journey and expecting God to do a miracle.

If you are sensing any resistance from anyone in your group, that’s okay. Allow people to process their thoughts openly and honestly in the group. Remember, your job is not to convince anyone to give something; it is simply to facilitate a discussion and let God speak to people.

This week’s topic is so important: Miracles. It is amazing to consider that God not only performs miracles, but He also invites us to participate in His miracle process. Having surrendered to God and being predetermined to obey whatever He says, this week is critical to help people prepare for Commitment Weekend. The goal is for everyone to come to Commitment Weekend having heard from God and ready to make their 2-year commitments with confidence and excitement.
