Discussion Guidelines 

  1. Everyone shares in sentences, not paragraphs. 
  2. Focus only on what this passage is saying. (This keeps everyone on the same page) 
  3. Share from your perspective – we won’t argue or give advice. 
  4. Give everyone time to respond. Silence is OK. 
  5. The facilitator will facilitate discussion, not teach. 

‍
