Happy Sabbath! It is such a joy to be your study partner as we explore how to effectively "Share Him" with the world around us 📖. This week's lesson is a beautiful reminder that our lives are a constant testimony, and I’ve prepared these discussion questions to help your small group dive deep into a vibrant, sharing experience 😇🙏.
Sabbath: Share Him
How can we ensure our spontaneous reactions in stressful moments reflect Christ rather than our own frustrations when we are caught off guard?
Why is a daily, abiding relationship with God the only way to maintain a consistent witness to both strangers and friends?
Sunday: Out of the Overflow
What personal "eyewitness" experiences of God's work in your life can you share with others this week to demonstrate His redeeming power Acts 4:20?
How does spending time with Jesus transform our "boldness" when speaking to those who might be skeptical of our faith Acts 4:13?
Monday: Unforced but With Power
How can we distinguish between having a "fire shut up in our bones" for the gospel and accidentally using coercion or pressure on others Jeremiah 20:9?
In what ways can we follow Christ's example by meeting physical needs as a first step in our witnessing to the weary Matthew 4:23-24?
Tuesday: Tips for Sharing Jesus
Who are the "weary" people in your daily sphere, and how can you ask God for the "tongue of the learned" to speak a word in season to them Isaiah 50:4?
What does it actually look like to "sanctify the Lord God in your hearts" before you attempt to give an answer for the hope that is in you 1 Peter 3:15?
Wednesday: A Wandering Child
When a loved one walks away from the faith, how does God's response to wayward Ephraim help us maintain a spirit of hope instead of despair Jeremiah 31:20?
How can we practically reflect the "pitying tenderness of Christ" toward those who have been driven out of the fold by a lack of love?
Thursday: Bring Them Back
How can we use the "power of a loving and lovable Christian life" to reach those who have rejected formal doctrines or church structures?
Why is it vital to pray for the restoration of others with the same persistent faith Jesus exhibited when praying for Peter's conversion Luke 22:31-32?
Friday: Further Thought
How does active soul-winning serve as a "refining and purging" process for our own spiritual character development?
What steps can we take this week to ensure our efforts to share the Word are filled with "divine inspiration" rather than just human enthusiasm Isaiah 55:11?
I hope these questions spark wonderful and transformative conversations in your group! Please let me know if you need anything else to help your study session 🌟.
