[Onebrother] Fall 2012

[B. Heath Robinson]

Greetings.  It is (finally) time to start back up our regular small group
meetings.  I have missed our weekly gatherings around the Word and food and
prayer.  As you may know we are now meeting at the Kiniry's house.  I'll
let them share directions.


*Bible Study*
Our Bible study will center around the sermon's text every week, so don't
fall asleep Sunday morning.  I would suggest writing down or taking note in
your mind of one big question as you come away from the sermon.  If we all
do this, I think we will have a great discussion and really obtain the
benefit from the sermon that God has for us.


*Friday Nights Out*
We will continue our Friday night dinners at some restaurant in town.  I
have thought a little more about this practice, and thought I might share
why we do this.

   1. Modern life just doesn't lead itself to unintentional crossing of
   paths that allow deeper fellowship to spontaneously develop.
   2. We are all busy, but we all eat dinner on Friday night, so it is an
   easy time to get together.
   3. Since Temple is still relatively small, serendipitous meetings with
   friends and acquaintances outside Redeemer are likely to occur at local
   restaurants.
   4. Our Friday Nights Out are have a low entry barrier for invitations to
   friends.  While meeting at a friends house for dinner and a bible study
   might be intimidating, eating out with friends is not.


*Communication*
We will continue to use the one brother list as our main mode of
communication.  I am considering using a facebook group, as it might be
easier to reference than an email, and it is opt in so I am not managing
the list.  If you have a strong opinion about this, let me know.
