Community Group Study Notes
- Have someone in your group give a brief recap of Sunday’s message, highlighting the primary Scripture points and the main idea of the message.
- How did this message strengthen and/or correct your previous ideas about hope found in God’s provision and God’s promises? Did you learn anything new about God or yourself this week?
- What do you typically do/how do you respond when God feels silent?
- Has God asked – or is God currently asking – you to give up anything that you want(ed) to hold on to?
- What are some ways your faith has been tested? How did you respond?
- Isaac didn’t resist Abraham’s attempt to bind him and place him on the wood pile. What does that. Say about the relationship between Abraham and Isaac? How is this like the relationship between Abraham and God?
- What action step do you need to take in response to this week’s message? How can your group hold you accountable to this step?
Action Step
Read Genesis 22:5 – “He said to his servants, “Stay here with the donkey while I and the boy go over there. We will worship and then we will come back to you.”
Spend time in reflection. Do you have the kind of trust in God’s promises that allow you to walk in faith and follow Him in faith, no matter what, where or who He calls you to? Do you continue to trust in God’s promises, even when He feels silent?
Mobilization Challenge
Practice hospitality: invite a co-worker, neighbor, friend, or family member to have a meal with you this week. Spend time listening to them, encouraging them, and praying for them.
