You picked up the What You Carry Leader’s Guide, and you’re about to walk a group of people through something that genuinely changes how they see themselves, their gifts, and their place in the Church.
Give us about a minute to show you what you have, how to get your participants signed up, and how to plan your first study. Then you’ll be ready to launch.
Everything you need to facilitate all 8 sessions is included — in the format that works best for how you like to lead.
You do not need to be a theology expert to lead this. If you can lead a conversation, you can lead this study.
Your Leader’s Guide is your facilitation tool — but each person in your group will need their own participant access. That’s what unlocks their charism assessment, weekly readings and worksheets, video and audio libraries, and a whole library of bonus resources.
You’ve got two ways to do it. Pick whichever fits your group:
Before your first meeting, just two questions to think through. There’s no wrong answer:
How often do you want to meet?
Who’s in your group? An existing small group, a brand new group of friends, or a ministry team you already lead — all three work beautifully. Trust who comes to mind.
One more thing: your Leader’s Guide isn’t a one-time-use resource. You can run What You Carry as many times as you want, with as many groups as the Holy Spirit puts in front of you. The only new piece each time is participant access for the new group.
