Instructions: This exercise can be applied to practically any problem or issue that becomes a barrier to movement. Carry this out in small groups around tables. If there are several table groups, let each present their findings to the rest of the participants when they are finished.
1. Begin by defining the problem or issue that your team is facing.
2. Take time to look in the WORD for passages that address the problem. These are direct commands or instructions that should be quite obvious.
3. Next, think of examples of God’s WORKS, past or present, that address this problem in some way. Think of stories or events in history.
4. Finally, discuss ways to change the WINESKINS — that is, the “containers” such as your methods, tools, and patterns for going about the work.
