    Hi Dwayne Mccrary . Thanks for the work in writing/editing podcast etc. our SS study of Isaiah.
    I have several questions. When I pull up the lessons on goexploreThe bible.com / leader extras I only see helps through lesson 10…Am I missing something ?
    2) will there be a podcast after lesson 10 ?
    3) Personal question on Nikki .I see Blakes Bio and I see Dwaynes Bio… but Nikki looks like a Lay leader. So ,for my curiosity how does a lay leader become involved in these types of programs/projects? I’m not concerned about her credentials at all …because I’m sure shes qualified .

      Thanks for asking these questions.
      1. The idea behind extra is to identify a news event that can be used to begin and end a group time. We want the item to be current so we post it 10 days prior to the suggested use date.
      2. There will be a podcast for every session. We follow the same pattern as extra to make it more manageable for people just discovering the podcast.
      3. Nikki is a lay leader and she is not the only person who writes for us that is not on a church staff. Many of these writers are educators who lead Bible study groups for their church. People who are interested in writing submit an assigned sample for us to review. If that sample meets standards, we then begin a second step that includes recommendations.
