Formation | Part 2
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?
Do you think transformation is possible for you? If not, how does this teaching from 2 Peter challenge you?
How have you caught the spirit of trying over training? Does it feel odd to talk about training to be like Jesus? If so, why might that be?
When you think about who you’re becoming, what comes to mind? Do you like what you see? What might the Spirit be leading you to relinquish; that is, where might Jesus be inviting you to train (patience, courage, chastity, etc.)?
