Group Discussion

Part 3 | “Trust God Through Failure, Fear and Doubt” Print · Download PDF · Send to a friend

The following questions are meant to help your group enter into meaningful discussion that we pray will help you grow in your walk with God. They are simply a guide, so you don’t have to use or get through all of them. You may want to look through them ahead of time and identify the ones that would work well with your group. Any questions you don’t get to might be used by your group members for study and reflection in their personal devotional times. And if your group naturally breaks the ice, feel free to skip the icebreaker question. Remember, it’s all about community, so let the Spirit guide your discussion where He wants it to go.

ICEBREAKER:

If you could break any world record, what record would it be?

REFLECT:

  • What are some common excuses we use to avoid obeying God?
  • If you knew that you would not fail, what would you attempt?
  • What failures in your life has God redeemed?
  • Tell us about a time when you felt God saying, “I chose you” to do something and you didn’t?
  • What doubts do you still have about the Faith, Hope, and Love campaign?
  • The three reasons Justin said we resist jumping are:
    • Failures
    • Fears
    • Doubts
  • Which one of those do you wrestle with the most?

RESPOND:

  • Read 2 Timothy 2:13 and take a moment to pray about what area of your life you need God to be faithful.
