Inductive Bible Study - followup

We had the first small group meeting tonight to actually go through the Inductive Bible Study. We had a much smaller group than normal. Only 7 of us were there. Two families were traveling, another had other plans with family.

We are studying 2 Peter. We looked at 2 Pet. 1:1-15. It was probably a little too long to study all at once. We would have done better to just cover up through verse 11. I think that the study went well. I am definitely out of practice at leading this type of study. I will need to brush up on my skills. There is some really good stuff in that passage about maturity, the imporance of pursuing maturity, and the motivation to seek maturity.

I really enjoyed the process of preparing. I hope that preparing to lead will help me be more consistent studying the Bible for myself.
