Discussion Questions

Do you know any examples of people who embody both grace and power? Why is it difficult to hold both together at the same time?
Why does suffering often expose what we are really trusting in?
Where do you find it hardest to believe that God is truly “with you” right now?
How might God use your current or past suffering to push the gospel outward toward others?
How does knowing that Jesus fulfilled the law for you change the way you face hardship or failure today?

Prayer Points

Ask the Lord to give you a profound awareness of his presence with you in your suffering
Ask the Lord to use your pain to push others towards him

Reach One

As we continue to grow as Thoughtful Witnesses, we’re inviting everyone to “reach one” person that’s far from God by praying for them by name daily and engaging them in some way monthly (see the page below for ideas). To help encourage one another in this season, we’re asking each Community Group to discuss the following questions at least monthly.

How can we pray for your “one”? How are you hoping to engage your “one” this month?
