Practicing Perspective
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 was most challenging?
What was most encouraging?
What do you “know” but fail to put into practice?
How can we embody the way of Jesus in this season?
When you hear that, “Patience is a posture of withholding (anger or satisfaction) for the good of others.” Do you consider yourself to be a patient person?
Can a loving person be impatient?
If so, how?
What spaces in your life are calling you to withhold in this holiday season?
