My friend shared 6 strategic objectives for expanding and modernizing Bible Study classes. I had a couple ideas that I think may be helpful.
1. Use Google Translate: Put the notes/questions online in HTML, use Google Translate to create base translations in Spanish (phase 1). Enlist help from all the classes to fix the translation confusion (built into Google Translate), then have your original team pull a copy to edit/lock-in the translation for print/web (phase 2)
2. Having the notes in HTML the 'Go Deeper' can use REF tagger
like this (mouse over the verses):
Living Water: John 4:14;7:37-39; Revelation 7:17
3.a Expand seminars to include "Online Bible Navigation"
Here's an example that will make your heart smile: John 4:14;7:37-39; Revelation 7:17
3.b Expand seminars to include "Prayer"
scripture fed, spirit led worship based prayer
3.c Have online training for homiletics, offer "flipped-classroom" style where seminar is about participants asking questions, offering insight and sharing what they've learned from the online assignment.
4. Create a paper "connection form" where people can share email/phone and opt in to Facebook, Linkedin, Twitter, other - have this passed around at the fellowships (GL manual).
5. Modernize 'Find a class' - allow people to find a class for my friend and send the URL
- Add template to the Find a class/Invite a friend to tweet, post to Facebook or email
- could be generated from the 'invite a friend' page
6. Get a twitter account, schedule some spoon feeding
- Help younger people look up those references with a helpful tweet, don't re-invent the wheel, here's a tweet link generator
- you can use tweetdeck to schedule tweets that match your mission, my friend Don Z has his alarm go off at 6:08 and where every he is he'll say, "Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, "Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?" And I said, "Here am I. Send me!"
at 9:36 his alarm goes off again and he'll say, "Seeing the people, He felt compassion for them, because they were distressed and dispirited like sheep without a shepherd. Then He said to His disciples, "The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few."
- What if a Teaching leader live tweeted their Principals?
Very excited to see God at work in our classes
