Do This Not That (Week 1)

Weren't able to hear the teaching conversation in person this weekend? Catch up with OUR PODCAST.

SCRIPTURES FROM SUNDAY:

Mark 4:1-20, 6:45-52; Zechariah 7:9-12; Psalm 65:9-11; James 1:21

REFLECT/DISCUSS:

Q: If you had to describe yourself as one or the other, would you say you are more open or closed to God right now? Why?

Q: Which are you more likely to succumb to- blatantly hardening your heart toward God (like in the Zechariah passage)? Or following Jesus, but being kind of dense and lacking faith or understanding (like the disciples in Mark 6)?

Q: When is the last time you said, “I know what God would say, BUT……”?

Q: Have you ever asked God to soften and open up the hard places in your heart? Identify any experiences or beliefs that have left you a bit crusty and ask for God’s help healing them and being more open to Him.

Q: Do you expect to be challenged and stretched when you explore Jesus’ ways? Does this expectation lead you to seek Him more or less?

Q: What will you do to take in God’s Word this week? If you don’t have a plan, check out You Version (www.youversion.com)

Next Week:
“GO DEEPER – DON’T WITHER”
