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 mobilization? Was there anything you heard for the first time or that caught your attention, challenged, or confused you? Did you learn anything new about God or yourself this week?
-
When talking to nonbelievers, have you been more of a “come and see” type (invite to church) or a “go and tell” type (share the gospel with them) or a hybrid? Why?
-
What are some ways we can engage nonbelievers to build relationships and begin to seek opportunities to share the gospel?
-
When was the last time you shared the gospel? How did it go? Was there a time recently where an opportunity was presented to share the gospel, but you didn’t act on this opportunity? Why?
-
What are the names of three people with whom you live, learn, work, and play who need the gospel? How can you begin (or continue) the conversation about Jesus with them?
-
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
Take a “next step” in mobilization this week. Consider the steps that Pastor Edwin presented:
Identify: who are the people in your neighborhood, friend group, family, school, or workplace who do not know Jesus? Write these names down.
Pray: Begin praying by name for each of these people you’ve identified.
Engage: intentionally begin a conversation and relationship with those you’ve identified.
Share: share the gospel and your grace story as the Holy Spirit leads you into opportunities
