Rev. Donald Sensing linked this one a while ago, and I thought it was worth highlighting again. Blog One another writes:
"Last week in our gathering, we had an "un-Bible study". My experience with "Bible studies" is that someone has read the passage and come up with a set of conclusions. Then they come up with a matching set of questions designed to lead people to those conclusions. The whole point is to find the "good" answers.
But for our "un-Bible study", instead of coming up with good answers, I explained that I wanted our group to come up with good questions...."
Jon Reid then goes on to describe their application of "un-Bible Study" in practice. Is there a connection between the philosophy behind this practice and alpha dinners? Read Un-Bible Study and see.

Here are some quick tips for adding simple Textile formatting to your comments, though you can also use proper HTML tags:
*This* puts text in bold.
_This_ puts text in italics.
bq. This "bq." at the beginning of a paragraph, flush with the left hand side and with a space after it, is the code to indent one paragraph of text as a block quote.
To add a live URL, "Text to display":http://windsofchange.net/ (no spaces between) will show up as Text to display. Always use this for links - otherwise you will screw up the columns on our main blog page.
