This could be an excellent outline for Bible study leaders as well. Some leaders are naturally adapted for interactive teaching and other are not...like me, for example. Ha!

Yes, it does come more naturally for some than others. :) But it still requires all of us to develop and sharpen certain skills and abilities. Thanks, Lori!

I’m so blessed to have been a part of The Orchard, where Curt teaches interactively! I don’t think I would’ve ever been able to grow as deeply in my relationship with God if it were not for the interactive teaching. And it’s so true what you said Curt, when I go to visit other churches, now I just feel, although the preacher is trying his best to convey a message, it just feels so superficial, just barely scratching the surface, not deep, it’s hard for me to listen and not to raise my hand and ask a question to take us deeper into God‘s word.🙈😅 I often leave the so-called, “drive-through church”experience, feeling so empty and wanting more. I absolutely love interactive, teaching and love diving deep into God‘s word and making it a part of my life.

Thanks, Mona! That's exactly what a pastor or teacher wants to hear! I've been incredibly blessed, too, to be part of The Orchard. I'm very thankful to be able to teach and study God's Word with such a wonderful group of people.
