Icebreaker:
- What is something you have “conquered” in your life?
Sermon Discussion-1 John 5:1-4
- What kinds of things in your daily life show that you love God?
- Talk about the concept of conquering the world: What do you think this looks like in your life?
- Why is loving God and faith the way we conquer the world?
- How does the idea of the “upside down kingdom” that Pastor Steve spoke about influence how we think about this idea of “conquering the world”
Going Deeper – 1 John 5:5-12
- Describe to the group who Jesus is to you.
- Explain how water and blood- Jesus’ baptism and crucifixion- prove that he is God’s son.
- How does understanding the Trinity impact this (The podcast spoke a lot to this)
- In what ways does the importance or impact of being able to “testify” about who Jesus is affect our daily living?
- Is there something God is wanting to teach you in this message that would impact how you live differently next week?
Prayer (Considering this and using it as a prayer prompt for group prayer time)
- Consider praying for each other, for God to reveal to us more about who Jesus is and what it means for us to conquer the world.
