Session 1: Attitude
First 24 hours after the Session:
- Your guests were asked to share if they are struggling with grief or depression. If you receive interactions for this, send them the article on depression and grief located here or download this PDF version.
- There is also a call to anyone wanting to learn more about emotional health. For these responses you can send the “Emotional health article” or download a PDF version provided by Faith for Today.
- Your guests are also introduced to the power of prayer tonight. There is a call to action to request prayer during every session. Sometimes these calls for prayer have a specific appeal. Tonight’s Prayer Request is an introduction to prayer. Your guests requesting prayer tonight may have never prayed before. Some may not know how and just want someone to pray for them. Some may be resonating with the deep personal hurt that was shared during this session. However their response (you may be able to gauge it by the comments) pray for them before you connect, then ask what led them to respond tonight, and if there is anything specific you can pray for them.
1-2 Weeks after the Session:
Here are possible Literature Options we suggest as a continued follow-up resource for those who responded to a call to action during session 1.
