Welcome and thank you for stepping into the role of a host! You don't need to be a Bible scholar, chef, or counselor, but you do need to gather a place, a group, and materials. The Journey consists of a weekend experience, personal challenges, and team collaboration. Emphasize the power of teamwork, listen actively, offer advice cautiously, and manage common obstacles like over-talkers and under-talkers.
