Grow Group Questions – October 30, 2022
Announcement:
Baptisms are on Nov 20th. Is there anyone in your group that has never been baptized since following Christ and needs to take that step of obedience?
Icebreaker: (Pick one or two)
- What did your parents teach you about the Bible, either purposely or inadvertently?
- What about your grandparents?
Sermon & Scripture Discussion – 2 Timothy 3:14b-17
- As you reflect on Sunday’s message, what principle or insight stands out as being particularly helpful, insightful, or difficult to grasp?
- Is there one book of the Bible that you wish you could be an expert in or understand better?
- Why that one?
- What have you done to help you study that book better?
- Paul tells us the Scriptures are useful for “teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness.”
- Have you seen God use one of these in your own life recently?
- How have you seen God use at least one of these four to bring change in your life?
- How do you come to God’s word to help you experience these in your life? (Personal tools, methods, resources)
Going Deeper – 2 Timothy 3:14b-17
Pastor Steve shared some of the things that keep us from going to God’s word (Boring, doesn’t make sense, I don’t see value in it). If you are honest, which one do you have to battle through when coming to God’s word?
- What behavior or reality of your life is most likely to keep you from reading the Bible daily?
- How can you challenge or address that this week?
- What can this group do to help you engage in regular Scripture reading?
Prayer Time:
Spend time praying about what might have been shared in the going deeper discussion.
