You may want to read up on the difference between birthright and blessing before you present Step 3 of “Do you help or exploit?”, which is based on Genesis 27:6-8. The LifeWay Adult Leader guide confounds the two (p.144). As I understand it, birthright passes patriarchal authority in the family, whereas blessing passes on financial assets.
Ask members if they are familiar with the meaning of “bless his heart”, or “bless her heart”? I can hear Rebekah saying "bless his heart" about Esau as she gives her instructions to Jacob for stealing his blessing.
