Questions for the Community

Devoted to Learning  

  1. Read the passage out loud and review the 3 points from Sunday. Any immediate take aways?
  2. You know yourself and are learning more all the time. What is your default answer to “is joy really possible in the struggle?” Where is God growing you in this season?
  3. As you ponder ‘sanctification’ and ‘pressing on to make it your own’, consider how the Israelites were given the Promised Land but had to go and claim it. How does it apply to you?

Devoted to one another

  1. Who is in the struggle right now? Be the body of Christ and care for one another. 
  2. How can you help one another forget the past and focus on the future?
  3. Do you know your deepest desires? Is this a hard category to think in or discuss? Learn from one another on this.

Devoted to praying

  1. In prayer, celebrate what it means that Christ has made you his own. Listen for the Beloved’s voice to you.
  2. Ask for the healing and insight needed to get going, get focused or whatever else God may want for you.
