How do I teach?

I've been put with the task this week of leading bible study for the guys in my group tomorrow night. So I've been thinking about how do we teach something that is preached to me? Because I don't want to be preaching to them, because well it has no discussion or involvement. So then I started to think about my teachers in highschool and what they did to teach. And I quickly came to the conclusion that well they were essentially just preaching as well but with one key element which changes preaching to teaching. And that is asking questions and getting the students to even do the question. Pretty neat huh.

So I've been listening to the song Oh You Bring by hills, heaps these last few days as it is one of my favourite worship songs to listen to. It's simple got a steady beat to it and has that ability to bring that atmosphere of comfort to my surroundings and my mind. It's just amazing how we are reminded through this song that God is the solution to all of lifes problems. I love how it depicts so well how God is the one who opens our hearts and allows us to be able to hear what He has to say. It's not by our works at all that we are made righteous but by His gift of salvation. I think for me this song is a great way to remind myself in my struggles with life, I can be reminded that the creator of the world sees me as righteous because He has made me righteous by the cross and that at the end of the day I am loved.

Peter.
