Listen Later

In episode five, by reviewing the MRT Facilitator (http://gracechurchsc.org/MRThandbook), Chris Rivers and cohost Turner Vaughn address how to troubleshoot and handle common issues that may arise in an MRT study. While each problem is situational and specific to a group, it is important to think through practical steps to take should any of the issues arise.

HIGHLIGHTS:

  1. During this episode, Turner and Chris address communication issues such as going off-topic, how to handle someone who never talks, or someone who might try to dominate a conversation. With this, they provide tips on how to guide a group discussion in ways that allow collective group participation. In addition to this, Turner and Chris provide practical tips and resources that tackle how to handle group tension. For example, if no one is prepared, the group does not click, or there are members who are particularly argumentative. This episode exists for preventative purposes too.  Through listening to this episode and being aware of common group concerns, you will be equipped with how to deal with these issues if they occur in a group you are leading.

    2. NEXT STEPS:

    1. Review pg.10 and pg.11 and then meet with your MRT leader to identify which common problems you anticipate might be challenging to think through. Then come up with a strategy for implementing what you learn.
