Practical Ideas and Tips
Below is an ongoing list of some of the ideas submitted to help with various elements of LifeChange Partners. For example, what do you do if one of the partners does not seem very committed, or they cancel frequently, or they don’t share openly, or they do share your life openly with others. As you can see, the possibilities are extensive.

Please briefly describe the problem you are addressing, and, your proposed solution.
“Use the weekly reading plan and semi-structured journaling found in the Disciples Bible Study Journal to keep on track and consistently working through Scripture.”
“Find a person who is spiritually open by asking a lot of people, and praying consistently to find a person of peace.”
“Meeting in a public place, like a restaurant, helps us be more open about our faith, struggles, and our solutions in God. You might even have people want to join you.”
“Write down a list of people that you think might be open to growing in discipleship. Pray through your list and ask God to reveal those who might be a good fit. Think through how you’d invite them into a discipleship relationship.”
Recognize the differences between LifeChange Partners and the Disciples Bible Study Journal. They are complimentary to each other. Each have their own place.
Be supportive and encouraging without condoning wrongdoing. It is the Holy Spirit’s job to convict and to lead them into righteousness (rightdoing).
