Adult bible Study Curriculum- Training

You have probably put a lot of time into researching and choosing your Adult Bible Study Curriculum.  But it is also very likely that you will not be the one communicating it.  You may be the education or small group minister and merely in charge of finding the curriculum, but the responsibility of teaching it goes to others.  If this is the case, do your leaders know why you chose the curriculum?  Do they know what your hopes are for it?  Do they understand the finer points of teaching it?  These are important questions.  You chose the Adult Bible Study Curriculum you did for a reason, and it is important that you give your teachers training so that the reasoning you had comes through.  Plus the time spent in training will make your teachers and leaders feel valued.  Yes no one really likes meetings.  But if you do it properly it can be a wonderful, refreshing time where you can build relationships and spur one another on.  Besides, the people who will be leading the Bible Studies may be brand new to teaching and have some concerns.  And even those who have been in it a while always have something to learn.  Train and invest in your leaders.  It is on of the most worthwhile investments you can make in your ministry.
