Week 1
Accompaniment: amplifying the voice of Jesus in our story (30 minutes):
Open in prayer and invite the Holy Spirit to lead and guide the conversation.
Listen to each other —
Take turns briefly praying for each person after they share, so that everyone in the group gets prayed for, and everyone in the group prays.
Alignment: recalibrating to the reign of Jesus (30 minutes):
Listen to video for Week #1.
Discuss: How have you experienced the mitigation of mercy, especially as it might pertain to whole person care in a clinical setting?
Agreement: covenanting to follow Jesus together (15 minutes)
Agree together on when to meet the following week.
Review the awareness wheel tool to redeem a situation where you felt mercy was not served. Be ready to share what you learned at the next meeting.
Optional: Here is a link to MLK’s sermon “I've Been to the Mountaintop” the day before he was killed in Memphis, TN. Minutes 28:55-35:30 is the Good Samaritan reference.
