Genesis 13:1-18 - "Risking for Faith"

1) Re-read 13:5-9 and 14:14-16. Abram was incredibly self-sacrificial toward Lot, trusting in God’s promises to him above what he could see or currently possess. What conflicts are you currently facing that challenge you toward self-sacrifice? How does God’s promised blessing in Christ enable you to make personal sacrifices? 2) Re-read 13:10-18. Apparently the promise land didn’t look as promising as the land of Sodom. What are some ways we’re tempted to walk by sight instead of faith, and trust...

Genesis 11:27-12:3 - "Walking by Faith"

1) God calls Abram, a moon-worshipper from Ur (Joshua 24:2-3), to leave his homeland, his family network and ethnic heritage, and follow Him to only-God-knows-where to receive great blessing (12:1-3). How do you identify with Abram’s call and faith? (Hint: reflect on Galatians 3:5-9) 2) Abram claimed the promise land by faith - walking its breadth and length, building altars on it in the name of God - after God had appeared to the patriarch and promised him the land of Canaan (12:5-9). What does...

Galatians 5:25 - 6:10 - "Bearing the Weight"

Sermon Discussion Questions 1) Paul urges the Galatians to not be conceited (5:26; 6:3-5), but, rather, bear one another’s burdens (6:2). What does conceit look like for you? How does it undercut our ability to serve others in love (5:13-15)? 2) Re-read 6:1. Have you had an experience like this, either as the one tangled in sin or the one “restoring” someone caught up in it? If so, how has it gone? If not, why do you think this command hasn’t been practiced in your life/circle? 3) We’re called t...

Matthew 11:25-30 - "Active Rest"

Sermon Discussion Questions: 1) Jesus invites us to find rest under his yoke, learning from him (11:28-29). This might be called an "active rest." How have you experienced active rest in Christ? 2) Some of us need to step back and take a “rest" from serving in certain areas. Others need to find rest by stepping up to serve in Jesus’ name - even in their current fatigue. How can we know the difference, and determine what active rest in Jesus looks like for us? 3) How does Jesus' revealing his uni...

Ephesians 4:1-6 - "Unity in the Midst of Mess"

Sermon Discussion Questions 1) There seems to be a misconception for many believers that the presence of conflict means the absence of unity. Why do you think this is? How does the truth of the gospel contradict this misconception? 2) Paul urges us in Ephesians 4:1-2 that we should "walk worthy" of our calling, "with "humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love". Are there any people (especially fellow believers) you know of that you need to bear with? How can you pu...

1 John 1:5:16-21 - Apostasy and Assurance

Sermon Discussion Questions 1) John tells us our prayers for brothers/sisters who are caught in a sin “not leading to death” will be answered, granting life to those for whom we intercede (5:16-17; compare James 5:15-16, 19- 20). How does this encourage you in your intercessory prayers for others? 2) John says not all sin leads to death (5:17). But aren’t the wages of all sin death (Romans 6:23; James 1:15)? What do you understand by John’s phrase “sin leading to death”? 3) We’re told that the S...
