Each of the Open sharing's are limited to 5 minutes and they must be family appropriate. Also the sharing prayers may include a request for a laying on of hands.
The open sharing can include such items as life event announcements, stories, songs, ministry descriptions, testimonies, poetry, drama, article readings, humor, written stories, book readings, hymns, Bible readings, outstanding people stories and a lot more.
The question and answer portions can cover anything that is appropriate to discuss in a family environment; including theme questions, Bible, and life questions and more. They may not be answered, but they can be asked. The answering may be done by anyone in the sharing.
The themes may come from the Bible (fruit of the Spirit, Be-attitudes, etc.) or from life (i.e. parenting, marriage, etc.).
This is a small sampling of the potential for sharing.
