A Victory group meeting has three sections: Cc,
W, and P, and ideally lasts from forty to
sixty minutes.
ConneCt (5-10 mts)
Victory group meetings begin with a time to relate with
one another. Depending on the people who comprise
the group, this can be done through a variety of ways:
Fusuch as a cebreaker actvt
Aswered praerssharg f testes
and updates Questssuch as thse prvded the

Teach the truth and relevance of Gods Word for life application. The
Vctr grup eetg s t prarl a Bble stud. Althugh teachg
and explanation of Scripture is involved, the goal is to minister, not

There is no need teach all the points in a material.
Wth ths sect, we lk at what the Bble sas, ts relevace t us
today, and its application in our lives.
Wh: What does the Bible say?
Communicate and impart biblical truth clearly and concisely
16All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking,
correcting and training in righteousness, 17so that the man of God
may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.2 TimoTHy 3:16,17

S Wh: What is the relevance of the Word to my life?
Give participants the opportunity to discuss how the Word impacts
the way they live.
Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but betransformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test
and approve what Gods will ishis good, pleasing and perfect will.

If it is a promise, teach them to claim it. If it is a command or a

truth, let them embrace it willingly and not under compulsion. Allow
Gods grace and love to win them by the way
you teach Gods Word.
Ecurage specc, easurable act steps that are csstetwith the life change that the Scripture is bringing about. We do not

that the more religious we act, the more God loves us.
The Bble teaches just the ppste. Gds greatest
demonstration of love was not in response to ourrghteusess. Rather t was respse
to our rebellion.

we should be called children of God! And that is what

Tragically, many have grown up in families where one

anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and
that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.
HEBREWS 11:6

but t as rewarder. Hebrews tells us that we ust
beleve that He s a rewarder. Ths s the startg pt
of great faith.

Fh HpNow faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of
what we do not see. HEBREWS 11:1
Fath s the pwer that akes ur hpes ad dreas

frustrat. Fath wthut hpe s lke a dart plaer wh
des t kw where the dart bard s. He s dagerus
because he randomly throws darts all over the place.
Fh h WConsequently, faith comes from hearing the message,
and the message is heard through the word of Christ.
RomAnS 10:17
Why is it that some people seem to have great faith and
thers lttle fath? Gds Wrd s the ke t strg fath.
Just as proper diet and exercise produce a stronger

faith to grow strong.

Take up the shield of faith, with which you can
extinguish all the aming arrows of the evil one.

Fh lvFor in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor
uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts
is faith expressing itself through love.GALATiAnS 5:6
Fath that expresses tself thrugh arrgace,
selshess, ad ager s t true fath at all. Fath s
founded on Gods love for us. It grows as our love for
God grows, and it spreads as we learn to love others.
Fh acIn the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied
by action, is dead. JAmES 2:17
iactve fath s false fath. Fath s l as alve as t s

is put into practice, it becomes a powerful force.
