July 21, 2024
Connect with God and each other. (⅓ of meeting)
- Icebreaker: If you had to sing karaoke right now, what song would you choose?
- How has it been going with following and fishing?
Following= taking steps of faith
Fishing= sharing Jesus with others
- Praise God by taking turns completing the prayer “Thank you, God, for ________.” Then have someone close by asking God to open our hearts as we read His Word.
Discover what God is saying to you. (⅓ of meeting)
Read Galatians 3:26-29
- What was highlighted to you from this passage (a word, phrase, or idea)?
- Abraham’s family was chosen to be used by God to bless all people. What is meaningful to you about the idea of being a part of God’s chosen family?
- In what way have you experienced the joys and benefits of belonging to God’s family?
- Share the most challenging aspects of sharing life with everyone included in the chosen family of God.
Go do it! (⅓ of meeting)
- How can we as a group welcome and include those who are in a different season of life?
- What is God prompting you to do? Make an “I will” statement.
- Pray for the empty chair. God desires a bigger family! Place an empty chair in the circle and ask God to use us to fill it with someone that we invite.
