Third Time’s a Harm
Group Discussion Guide
Each Sunday we come together we offer an open invitation into the way of Jesus. An invitation to enter into sacred rhythms - to draw near to God through singing, giving, learning, and praying.
As a community who desires renewal in Des Moines as it is in Heaven, we recognize that we cannot offer what we ourselves do not have. We cannot lead where we ourselves have not been led; in turn, these questions aim at reflection. Reflecting on God’s word and making space for his leadership.
After watching or listening consider the following discussion questions as a large group or in groups of three to four:
What stood out to you about this week's teaching?
What does it mean to follow Jesus?
How do we make sense of following Jesus on the way to the cross?
Consider the “ant mound” illustration; how do you approach your desires and why?
Do you feel pulled more to Hedonism (release your desire) or Religion (repress your desire)?
How would you respond if Jesus asked you, “What do you want me to do for?”
How do you plan to cultivate an overcoming spirit?
