Dear GG Leaders.

I hope you (like me) have had an excellent week with God’s people discovering more of the riches of the resurrection. I’m so glad we’ve got these four weeks to dig into this chapter.

Please find attached some questions for next week’s passage 1 Cor 15:35-49.

And below is the link to the chat concerning these questions.

Programming Note: this little podcast is now having a short holiday. We’ll return with our new Prayer series late in April, for your Growth Groups week commencing 29 April.

As per my earlier message, here is the plan for the coming weeks:

Monday	Growth Group passage	Sunday sermon, passage	Notes

Dear Growth Group leaders,

Happy Easter to you. Praise the Lord that Christ is risen.

Find attached some questions and the link to our podcast for our next section of 1 Corinthians 15:12-34.

This week feels like it should be a holiday week – but as school resumes after this long weekend, and because we’ve only been going in our groups 6 weeks, my thought is to continue until the school holidays in later April.

You are in the best position to work out what to do with your group. Perhaps you want to keep charging on until winter! I find a short autumn break helps maintain energy through term 2.

My plans, including for what we’ll be preaching when are as follows:

Monday	Growth Group passage	Sunday sermon, passage	Notes
1 April	1 Cor 15:12-34	7 Apr. 1 Cor 15:12-34 Since he has been raised…	Resurrection life now
8 April	1 Cor 15:35-49	14 Apr.1 Cor 15:35-49 Spiritual bodies	Resurrections bodies then
15 April	GG Break.  [1Co15:50-58]	21 Apr.1 Cor 15:50-58 Labour in the Lord	Resurrection ministry now
22 April	GG Break.	28 Apr. Ephesians 1:1-14	Jaden preaching God’s big plan
29 April	Prayer passage 1	5 May. Prayer series begins	Our plan is to spend 6-7 weeks…
6 May	Prayer passage 2	12 May. Prayer series continues	…on prayer convictions & practice

Hope this helps?

We’re due to have another GG Leaders meeting on Sunday 5 May.

In Christ, Mark
