Week 2
Text: 1 Corinthians 15:1-11
Topic(s): Gospel, Maturity, Community
Big Idea of the Message: The gospel is how we become Christians but it is also how
we grow as believers—through meditating on God’s Word and applying it to every
aspect of our lives.
Discussion Questions:
1. What is one thing that stood out to you from this week’s message?
2. In what ways do you tend to believe that God’s feelings toward you rise
and fall based on your spiritual performance (instead of being secured by
Jesus’ righteousness)?
3. Where have you seen Jesus at work in your life recently? How is He
growing you toward maturity?
4. Are there areas where you have knowledge but not application and
obedience? Are there things you need to repent of in order to grow
spiritually?
5. What changes can you make to move more purposefully toward being in
consistent biblical community?
6. Who has God put in your life who you can intentionally help take next
steps toward Jesus?
Practical Challenge
Contemplate the ways you try to earn God’s love and write those ways down. Pray
each day that God would free you from the performance trap. Ask Him to reveal
areas in your life that you haven’t given over completely to Him as well as the people
around you that you can help take their next steps toward Jesus.
