Questions for the Community

Personal Reflection  

1. What kind of roles and distinctions were on display in your home and church growing up? Have you embraced what you saw modeled? Why or why not?

Group Discussion

2. Review the 6 “strings” that comprise a worldview. How does this shape our daily decisions and eventually our life?
3. Look back on the text and your notes from Sunday worship. What has stayed with you? Where specifically is God stirring in you? 
4. Review the commands and reasons found in our text. What parts are clear, what is still cloudy? 
5. How can you best apply this as an individual? as a family? as a church member? 
6. Spend time in prayer as a group. Ask that you’d be salt and light in a Bay Area that is rotting and dark in many ways. Tune your heart to God’s good gift of truth!

Plan of Action

7. Is there anything that needs reform or repentance in your life? Are there ideas and practices that need to remain or require reform? Let the mirror of Scripture and teaching of the Holy Spirit guide your steps forward.
