Sept. 11 - Word: Reading & Memorization

Matthew 4:1-11

First 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: Share about someone in your life who has a sincere love and knowledge of Scripture. How do you see that impacting how they live their life?

A way to pray: Pray for one another regarding how we view and value God’s word. Ask God for a strengthened hunger and right understanding of His Word among Grow Groups, and the body of believers at Berean.

Talk It Over:

  • What was one thing you heard in the sermon that really has stuck with/challenged you?

  • Treasuring God: What’s a Bible verse you’ve memorized (or would like to) that could be useful in times of difficulty? What do you appreciate about this verse?

  • Being Transformed: What are 1-3 things that you desire to change about your Bible reading or memorization? Why?

  • Loving Others: How can we allow God’s Word to influence our care for others? What opportunities do you have to do that this week?

  • Pursuing Unity: How can our group help each other to grow in handling the Bible well and in memorizing helpful passages? What would supporting each other look like practically?
