GROUP DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

Open your group discussion sharing something in the video teaching that was either striking or was new to you altogether.

Who is someone you know who needs Jesus today?

According to Scripture, who is Jesus? Is He reflected in what you say and the way you live your life?

What in your life needs to change so it’s obvious to others that you are a Jesus Follower?

CLOSING PRAYER

Facilitator, read the following prayer over your group.

FROM ANNE’S HEART

Pray with me . . .

IMMANUEL (GOD WITH US1),

We worship You as our Immanuel. We have seen Your glory in the face of Jesus Christ, full of grace and truth (John 1:14). We cannot keep silent! We worship You! We shout Your names! We praise You! We thank You! We glorify You! We love You!

We humbly, boldly ask that You give us the attention of our family, friends, neighbors, coworkers, classmates, even our enemies, so that they see our example and . . .

• they want to know You because they know us.
• they place their faith in You because we are trustworthy.
• they believe You because of what we say, and the way we say it.
• they know You love them because we love them.
• they know You can give them victory over sin because we demonstrate it.
• they have hope because we are so genuinely confident.
• they come to You for freedom from the power of sin because we speak the Truth . . . in love.
• they have peace because we are not afraid.
• they look to You as the solution for what’s wrong because we are looking to You.

Raise us up to live our lives filled with Your Spirit. By Your grace. In Your power. For Your glory. Until our faith becomes sight and we see You face-to-face! For the glory of Your name. Amen.
