Apr. 26 - The Bread of Life (Jn. 6:45-58; 11:25-26)
Keep growing in your relationship with Jesus: Take the message with you into your week. Reflect on the Bible passage and sermon (posts Sun. afternoon), then use the ideas below to help you talk it over with your friends, coworkers, family, or Grow Group.
Icebreaker idea: What’s your favorite snack, dessert, or other treat; and what’s your favorite food/meal?
A way to pray: Pray for one another to grow in finding deep satisfaction in Jesus. Pray for those who don’t know Him – ask the Lord that they would turn and find satisfaction and true life in Him as we seek to see 2,000 people by 2022 baptized and growing in relationship with Jesus through the Word, prayer, and community.
What am I most likely to hunger for: comfort? control? approval? power? Have I found enduring satisfaction in any of these areas? If not, why not?
What examples can I think of – in my own life or others’ – where belief in Jesus has led to personal transformation and lasting satisfaction? What are some practical ways I can “feed on Jesus” to nurture this kind of growth?
