I have been anticipating the start of The Story and today, Sunday, August 30 we started discussion on Chapter 1. What a day! I was not directly involved in the Sunday School classes but after talking with my teachers it seems as if the classes went great and there were some good questions asked by our students. Then Sunday evening we had 30 students and 7 leaders all in discussion concerning chapter 1. Just so you know, during Huddle we are going through the discussion questions in the back of the book for each chapter and starting next week we will be breaking into small groups to discuss these questions.
Tonight I was not sure just how everything would turn out since it was a large group setting, but it blew me away! We had some amazing questions asked and thoughts given that just showed how much our students want to learn. A majority of the students were involved in the discussions and it was a blast. With this I really want to encourage all of you parents to take advantage of this and take my word for it, our kids want to learn and they have some great questions to go along with The Story. Hang out with them and go through the Parent Pages with them.
Also, the questions our students tend to be fairly deep in thought so take time in answering them. If you are not sure of the answer, tell them, "I don't know but lets find out" and then study together. Remember Dana and I are here to help you parents in any way possible so feel free to ask us any questions you may have. Enjoy the journey and God Bless.
