Welcome aboard to almost 100 new people this week! We’re thankful you’ve joined this online community of Bible study leaders. As a quick reminder, here is the weekly schedule and the kinds of daily posts you’ll have access to:

• Monday:  Book Excerpt – this is to introduce you to some great Christian authors and their books related to Bible study and group ministry.
• Tuesday: Teaching Tip – a short tip that can make your Bible studies more dynamic and effective.
• Wednesday: Blog post on groups/group ministry
• Thursday: Blog post on groups/group ministry
• Friday: Hot Links – a quick email with about six to eight articles and podcasts that will benefit you as a Bible study leader, or as the leader of your church’s groups ministry

I’m thankful to each of you for following my blog, and for serving your church through its Bible teaching ministry.

Shoulder to shoulder,

Ken Braddy
