Programme Ideas
So, you kindly volunteered to lead and now you don't know what to do or don't have time to prepare? This page is designed to help with that, so that people needn't feel that leading a meeting is going to take a lot of time.
Over time, more links will be added here to resources which can be used for a meeting without (too much) preparation. Hopefully they'll be helpful topics for anyone leading a workplace Christian group, whether at RM or elsewhere!
Prayers for the World of Work: http://www.stets.ac.uk/work.html
Digging Deeper: I (Sam) have a copy of the book "Digging Deeper". This book has a lot of very short chapters, each of which outlines a specific technique to help with Bible study and would adapt itself pretty easily to one of our sessions. So if you want to borrow it then just ask!
Short Steps for Long Gains: Iain has a copy of the booklet Short Steps for Long Gains. This booklet contains 26 brief Bible studies, one for each letter of the alphabet, ideal for groups. Contact Iain if you want to borrow it.

Peterborough Diocese have some useful resources under the heading Working Discipleship.
There's a series of 3-4 min films at http://conspiracyoffreedom.org/ created by Breathe, a Christian network for simple living: We are consumers. No doubt. But does it have to shape our lives, fragment our communities and damage our world? What if we could resist the pressures of consumerism? What if we could live more simply, sustainably, generously?
RM is happy to provide rooms etc. for use by any faith groups
