Am I Bovvered?!

Here's the link to the Sermon: Bovvered?!

Reading: Amos 6 


In the sermon we looked at this passage under 4 different headings.
As a group take a look at these headings afresh - try not just to regurgitate the sermon J but go deeper and broader and look at how these thing apply to us today.

1. Verses 1-3 Never be Content in the wrong thing
2. Verses 4-6 I’m all Right, Jack is not all right!
3. Verses 7-10 God Dictates; Not You
4. Verses 11-14 Morality Is Important to God

Pearls, fish, fire: old and new...

Here's the link to the Sermon: The Old with the New 

 

Reading: Matthew 13 : 44-52

1. Verses 44-46:  whilst this looks like an obvious picture of giving up everything to follow Christ, discuss and consider some of the ways that “selling everything” will impact our lives, what are the obvious and not so obvious costs of following Christ.
2. Verses 47-49: a passage we might not want to dwell on! However discuss: a) what it is that makes righteous people righteous, b) what is hell? c) How should  this picture affect us in our everyday lives, living alongside ‘unsaved’ people?
3. Verses 51-52: this was dealt with in the sermon. How should the church adapt to meet society? What responsibilities do all Christians have in this area and how should we work and live together as a church family to effectively live and enable each other to live for Christ. [Clarification: 1 Thessalonians 5:12-22]

Leviticus - really??

Here's the link to the Sermon: The exciting Gospel according to Leviticus 23 

Instead of reading the whole passage through first, take the chapter and discuss:
 

1. The Sabbath - how does this compare with The Lord's Day for Christians?
2. For each of the feasts talk through:

          a) what the original purpose was;
          b) what the prophetic purpose is;
          c) how is understanding this relevant and useful for us today.
