Romans 11:11-32

Grow

  • To better understand how gentiles are “grafted” into God’s family read this article.

  • Look up “mercy” in a dictionary. Which definition best describes God’s actions toward both Jews and Gentiles? Why?

Share

  • Reflect on God’s kindness towards you. How does knowing this motivate you to treat others more kindly this week?

  • Listen to “His mercy is more.” Then share this song and what it means to you with someone who needs Jesus.

Connect

  • How might knowing we’ve been grafted into God’s family lead us to pride or arrogance? What should we do as believers to avoid these pitfalls?

  • Honestly share with others (grow group, family, friend) the current state of your heart. How can this vulnerability protect our hearts from being hardened?

  • Explore Job 2:11-13 and 42:7-8 together to prepare for next week’s sermon.
