In Class—take a few minutes to jot some possible responses for each. Then meet with your group and compare your work.

"Phrasing questions so that students have little to lose by speaking removes much of the anxiety that students have about responding to requests for discussion." [Lowman, 176] Take each of the following requests for objective "correct" answers and rephrase them a couple of ways so they are invitations to discussion.

  1. What’s the right thing to do when you hear someone has told a lie about you?



  2. Does the Bible say that we should be attending rock concerts or not?



  3. Where in the Bible does it explain why bad things happen to good people?



  4. How do you discover the will of God for your life?



  5. What are the five means of growth and where does it name them in Scripture?
