The purpose of this book is to help the group leader facilitate the study and discussion of the group books with the same title. Since you have been given such an important responsibility as leading a group of Christians in the study of the Bible, I would like to share with you some principles utilized by the apostle Paul in his teaching and preaching ministry. These will assist you in your time with the believers God has given to you to minister to. These are in no particular order but all are important. The Lord does not expect us to be perfect in them but to simply do the very best that we can. If we are willing to do our part, then He will do His part through His Spirit. In 1 Corinthians 12:5-7, Paul explains, "There are various kinds of service, and the same Lord." Here Paul, the apostle, acknowledges that the saints can minister to one another in a variety of ways. Then he adds, "There are various kinds of workings, but the same God, who works all things in all." As each person ministers, they will have a different impact than others but it is all the work of the Holy Spirit. Finally, he continues, "But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the profit of all." Your service in this ministry is coming from the giftedness which is a work of God's Spirit to benefit all. Do the best you can with these principles and let the Spirit do the rest.
