April 21, 2023 3:08 PM
Announcement:  
  • Men, make sure you sign up for the Men’s Breakfast on Saturday. Follow this link to register and come together. 
Icebreaker:  
  • What movie or book comes to mind when thinking about “end times”? Summarize the plot for the group.
Sermon/Text Discussion-1 John 2:18-23 (The Podcast will help with these questions)
  • How does the idea that “we are living in the last days” change the way you want to live your life? Can you give examples?
  • What is one specific belief that you are willing to fight to defend? 
    • If you had to, could you point to Scripture to defend it? 
    • Why is this “the one” you would fight for?
Going Deeper  - 1 John 2:24-27
  • Have you ever heard anyone say that God told them to do/not do something?
    • What was your response?
  • Have you ever asked God about a key life decision in prayer? 
    • Did you wait for an answer? 
    • How did you most want God to speak to you? 
    • Did he respond that way, not at all, or did you see Him speak in another way?
  • What are some of the things that keep us from hearing the Holy Spirit speak to us? (busyness, fear, thinking: “I’m not sure he speaks”)
  • Where in your life can you create times to listen to the Holy Spirit more?
Prayer  
Pray for each other based on the last question shared in discussion.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!
