I. INTRODUCTION
A. THINK BACK OVER YOUR WEEK.
1. HOW MANY GOOD THINGS CAN YOU
RECALL SOMEONE DOING? MAYBE
YOU READ ABOUT THEM, HEARD
ABOUT THEM, OR PERSONALLY SAW
THEM HAPPEN.
2. HOW ABOUT IN YOUR LIFE? WHAT
ARE SOME OF THE GOOD THINGS
SOMEONE DID FOR YOU THIS WEEK?
B. WE HAVE BEEN STUDYING THE FRUIT OF
