Gift of Limits
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 in this week’s teaching?
What is the risk of not living according to your unique “who?”
We each have a unique set of personal limits we must receive in areas of life such as personality and temperament; current season of life; marriage or singleness; emotional, physical, and intel- lectual capacities; family of origin; time.
In which area of life are you most aware of your need to receive a limit right now? Briefly share why.
In which area of life are you most aware of how your limits are truly a gift, a means of God giving you direction, wisdom, and encounters with himself?
How do you understand the differences between legitimate strengths and weaknesses with your gifts, and immaturities or weaknesses of character?
