Getting Started

To participate in the Dee’s online Bible Study please follow these instructions:

 

  1. Go to Dee’s homepage (http://www.deebrestin.com)
  2. You will see her weekly blog post, click on “Read More” at the bottom
  3. Scroll to the very bottom of the comments where you can enter your Name, Email, and Website information (optional) Please give us more than your first name such as Mary from Canada or Lauradancer
  4. Click submit comment
  5. This first comment could take up to a day to be approved. After that you can write comments automatically on the blog.

Tips:

We cannot delete comments – and it is time consuming for us to edit them, so please think before you write. Some put their comments into a Word document before they post them.

Dee’s comments are shaded in gray. She endeavors to read all the comments in relation to the Bible study, and, if possible, prayer requests too.

If you are in a particular group, when you sign up, you might want to identify yourself – as during this Lent you will see, for example, Melissa@GPC (Gashland Presbyterian Church) – that will help group members find one another.

Always feel free to move ahead of the schedule — the days mentioned are just a guideline. There will be a new post early each Sunday morning

The photos next to comments are called “Gravatars”.  To make it so your photo automatically appears when leaving a comment, go to http://en.gravatar.com and create an account.  Be sure to use the same email address as you use when leaving comments in Dee’s blog.

You can do this on your phone if you get Dee’s free app from i-tunes: Dee Brestin Ministries

If you have any remaining questions or trouble, please contact the website administrator: david@deebrestin.com

We welcome you so and you will find a loving and praying group here whom God has graciously met.

SOS FROM DEE FOR LENTEN BLOGGERS
I remember when my dad refused to do e-mail because he said, “I feel like I’ve come home and there are twenty people in my kitchen.”

Are you feeling that way on this blog? I am so thankful for each of you and believe God brought you. Each new person has given me joy.

But how do we keep the size of this group from working at cross-purposes with the very desire we have for increasing intimacy with Jesus this Holy Lent?

I am suggesting a new plan for this Lent. Instead of writing out all your answers here on the blog, put them in a Word document and just share the gold:
• Something that quickened you
• Something that puzzled you and you want input
• Don’t feel compelled to read all the comments. You can find particular people by using the command key followed by the F key (find) and typing in their name.

I’ll put this in “Getting Started” and also post it again Sunday.

Thanks for your patience with me – I want to be wise with this new world, and so appreciate your prayers. I also want to hear from you to see if you think this is wise — I surely don’t want to quench the Spirit.
