Everyone goes around and answers the first question and then you start over with the next, etc.<br />Quaker Questions:<br />1. Where did you live between the ages of 5 and 12 and what were the winters like. (Some people may have lived in several places, so tell them to choose one place.)<br /><br />2. How was your home heated?<br /><br />3. Two parts:<br /><br /> A. What was the center of warmth in your life when you were a child. (This can be a place in the house, a time of year and perhaps a person.)<br /> B. Who was the center of warmth in your life? (This is a person.)<br /><br />4. When did God become a “warm” being to you and how did this happen?<br />(They changed the last question to "When did God become more than a word to you")Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14051693307256431402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3028000359711843677.post-26679310776311595612011-05-19T08:46:21.068-04:002011-05-19T08:46:21.068-04:00Sample questions: Share about an annual tradition ...Sample questions: Share about an annual tradition you began many years ago.<br />Tell us about a time when you were utterly and helplessly lost while driving.<br />Tell a story about something you enthusiastically said "yes" to that later you wished you had adamantly said "no" to.Patsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07821591671127590449noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3028000359711843677.post-75689574603153330532011-05-18T11:49:12.297-04:002011-05-18T11:49:12.297-04:00People like to tell about something that happened ...People like to tell about something that happened when they were kids.
