If you had a situation where you were leading a Bible study group and you had to trade off two things, what balance would you settle on?
Let's say you were in a situation where you'd have to balance (a) ability to control how much people were helped to be engaged with the text and (b) how much freedom there was to discuss and throw around ideas from the text and allow everyone to share their thoughts.
Now I know that this almost never needs to be a trade-off, it's only in some particularly unique situations where it might be the case. Don't get some weird ideas about me from this hypothetical.
But, if you had to, within the bounds of this hypothetical, what would you do?
