I am always looking for a good topic of interest to build a small group study around. Currently, I am preparing a new group study around Hannah Hurnards classic allegory Hind's Feet On High Places. This topic selection is recommended for a women's small group fellowship. The group activities and discussions center around the story chapter by chapter. Each member commits to read through the allegory first and enjoy the story flow. The discussion groups will be built around each member's own reflections on how Much-Afraid's journey compares to their own life's spiritual journey. Then the story will be examined and discussed chapter by chapter during each fellowship meeting . Members are encouraged to keep a special notebook and record their own thoughts and experiences.
This is a refreshing change from a typical Bible Study format. It not only encourages group interaction and personal sharing, but also encourages each member in their own daily quiet time devotions. I recommend that each group member uses the woman's devotional edition of the allegory. The devotional section will provide a structured format from which to center weekly discussions. The selection below is also available in the kindle edition.
