Community Group Discussion Questions

Making disciples through the mutual ministry of

redemptive relationships 

Text: Matthew 5:1-2

Sermon Title: The Greatest Sermon Ever

Date: October 14, 2018

  1. How have you interpreted the Sermon on the Mount previously (“law” leading to the gospel of grace, “a pattern” for believers to follow by the power of the Holy Spirit, applicable for private and civil life now, only applicable for clergy, or moral ethics for God’s people in the coming kingdom solely)?
  2. Read Matthew 5-7. What is one question you have about this text that you hope will be answered in our new sermon series? Which part of this text is the most attractive and/or easiest to receive? Which part is the most difficult or unnatural for you to receive and/or apply? Explain.
  3. Read Exodus 20:1-21. What are the similarities between this text and the Sermon on the Mount? What are differences?
    1. Why are verses 1 and 2 key to understanding the rest of Exodus 20? Where do we find the equivalent in Matthew and why is this important for us not to miss?
  4. In his sermon, Craig said that we all have three options when choosing an authority to submit to: 1) myself and my wisdom 2) The opinion of others and society as a whole and 3) Jesus. What does your life reveal about your choice here?
  5. What is the area(s) in your life that you pray God will transform you in through our time in this text over these next months?
  6. The three points of the sermon were: 1) Jesus is the King; hear His teaching and submit 2) Jesus is the Deliverer; hear His teaching and be free and 3) Jesus is the Prophet; hear His teaching and hope. Which one of these “offices” of Jesus is most encouraging or convicting for you today? Explain

Community Group Discussion Questions

Making disciples through the mutual ministry of

redemptive relationships 

Text: Psalm 119:129-136

Sermon Title: Wake up the Wonder

Date: October 7, 2018

  1. Tell us about a time in your life when you were most consistently saying, “WOW” to the Lord.
  2. What part of following Christ are you currently feeling most familiar with (lack of wonder)? What has changed since the “time of WOW” you shared?
  3. Read 2 Corinthians 3:12-18. What is the key to transformation here? How do we encounter or access this “key”?
  4. For those of you who have participated in the Psalm 119 “Transformed Journal,” please tell us about how the Lord has been moving on you through this process. What was difficult about this endeavor? What was good? What do you want to take with you beyond this study to continue to wake up your wonder of God?
  5. How is your wonder at God these days? Is your relationship with God marked by a growth in awe (as a trajectory)? What particular temptations seem to diminish your wonder in God and/or His Word?
  6. In the sermon, Craig charged us with 4 applications from this text: 1) engage God’s Word personally, 2) Pray verse 18, 3) unfold God’s word in community, and 4) wake up the wonder of God’s Word in “scattered worship.” Which one of these most resonates with you right now and why?
