Nov. 24 - Generosity: Born, Maturing, or Indifferent? (2 Cor. 9:10-15)
We invite you to ponder the week’s Bible passage and listen to the sermon (posts Sun. afternoon), then use the ideas below to help you and your group apply what the Lord is teaching you.
Icebreaker idea: What’s a more natural way for you to give to others – spending time together, doing acts of service, or giving tangible gifts? Share an example of a time you got to do that.
A way to pray: Pray for each other to grow in appreciating the gift we have in Christ, and to grow in generosity as an outflow of our gratitude for Him, as we seek to see 2,000 people by 2022 baptized and growing in relationship with Jesus through the Word, prayer, and community.
Talk It Over:
Treasuring God: What specific things about God have I been thankful for lately? How have I seen His generosity?
Being Transformed: How is God calling me to be more like Jesus? What’s my next step?
Loving Others: How have I experienced God’s love recently? How can I share His love with someone this week?
Pursuing Unity: Where is the enemy working to cause division and discord? How does God’s love encourage and empower me to seek peace instead?
