Please tell me how it has helped you in your walk with ther Lord. If not please explain why you think it hasn't.

Thanks B

I should have noted that the group may be exclusive to the catagories I mentioned, contain multibles, or even other activities I did not list (worship for example).

Shame on you guys that feel the need to answer this serious question with your homoerotic attempts at humor.

Please if you feel you just have to go there, then I ask respectfully that you don't. You have no idea what you are to answer for later on (every idel word to be exact).

Answer 1

Men's group? Romantic.

Answer 2

I haven't yet. I do have two guys that I see once a week that I used to teach the Bible to but that got disrupted. temporarily I like to think.

Here's something to think about. I heard that at a Promise Keeper's conference a pastor felt in the moment during a sort of confessional prayer with this group of guys who were praying with him and they were all sort of confessing sins.

Well he confessed that he had thoughts sometimes toward a woman or women in the congregation.

Six months later he was defrocked, kicked out of the denomination, divorced, and lost custody of his kids.

I really don't think that scenario is that far fetched or rare. Just strictly speaking as a spiritual leader (however insignificant my particular sphere is) I think that is an important lesson for anyone in ministry whether a janitor or on the worship team or whatever. When in men's or women's groups or at a retreat or wherever these special times of prayer take place, becareful what you reveal about yourself (and others you know who may be in sin or just having personal problems).

But to specifically answer your question, no I don't. Yes I do feel they are beneficial but you just need to becareful what you reveal to people in order to get their "support" or whatever you tell them to "keep this in prayer"

Actually not to go on and on but I think this is important. Obviously it is also important even if you're just a layperson not to reveal personal things. I mean unless you are in a really special situation with an individual you trust and you really feel led to.

I'd be happy to discuss it further if you wanted to.

God bless

Answer 3

I try to participate in Bible study. I do also, once a month, teach a Sabbath school lesson. I take turns with three other church members. Obviously, the greatest benefit from opening the Word of GOD are its edifying principles.

GOD bless

Answer 4

I'm in a Wednesday night group. We eat pizza, and discuss the Bible. Currently Ephisians.
If people would attend this type of study they would find that Christians are just normal people who like to have a good time.

Answer 5

people who have faith the trinity declare Jesus is God yet get around this question asserting Jesus became God in human sort.To me they are clutching at straws , this argument isn't clever in any respect. If Jesus is God in any sort then he's likewise the father & people considered Jesus who's the father yet did not die. the only logical answer could be is Jesus became not God , he became the Son of God it is who he continuously claimed to be . submit to in techniques Jesus continuously claimed God became greater advantageous , not equivalent .

Answer 6

Some terrible answers above - quite imaginative though and surprising too. I quit going to church years ago. Sorry I can't help.

Answer 7

i am going to. I just became a member of my church, a little over a month ago.

Answer 8

I think they have those at the Rest Stops on Interstate 90.

Answer 9

How cute is that.
Are pillow fights involved?

Answer 10

no. Because all these people who are in charge of it do not deserve to be in charge of anybody, as it goes to their heads.
