the goal is to have meaningful discussion sex girl

5:36 AM    

Be flexible and remember that the goal is to have meaningful discussion sex girl—not to simply “get through” the schedule. Since the timetable doesn’t allow for a great deal of reading time, we suggest that you hand out copies of the book to your girls at least two weeks before the event. Encourage them to read the entire book ahead of time so you can focus your time on discussion at the event.
Please note: Sexy Girls was written by a girl, for the girls, about a girl issue. As such, I highly recommend that this study be led by a girl instead of a guy. If you are a male youth director or pastor who thinks this study would benefit your group, I suggest that you ask a trusted adult woman to lead the group instead of yourself. I also recommend that you use this guide over a four-week period, tackling one session each week. That gives you plenty of time to prepare and gives your girls plenty of time to read. And please feel free to use these activities and questions to sculpt your own discussion.
