Welcome to the Weekend-Follow Up!
This is the group guide where questions are based on specific Bible passages from the weekend message. Each week, your group will explore what God might be saying to you and how you can respond through group discussion.
What is one thing you’re looking forward to in the new year?
What stood out to you most from this week’s message?
When was the last time you were confronted with change? Was it easy or difficult to move forward?
Where in your life have you been experiencing peace? Where could you use more?
Read Luke 1:11-14 and Luke 1:18-20.
How do you relate to Zechariah?
Like Scott, we all have doubts. What are some things that can make it difficult for you to believe and embrace the new life Jesus has for you?
What’s one step you can take this week to believe and trust in the identity Jesus has for you?
Let’s end our time praying together. You can say something like;
“Jesus, thank you for giving us a new identity of hope and peace. Help us to believe and trust in you, even if it doesn’t always make sense. Amen.”
