Questions for week Nov 15th - 21st

In the Dirt

Pastor Robby Rassel

Just for fun:

• Thanksgiving is right around the corner. What do you have planned? Any family traditions?
• Robby told a story about getting stuck in the mud. Has anyone ever been mudding before and got stuck in the mud?

(Go back and read the story from Sunday found in John 8:1-11)

1. One of the takeaways from Sunday was God’s great grace is greater than my many mistakes. How would you define grace? 

2. One way of defining God’s grace is that we get what we DON’T deserve (Christ!). How do you think that should effect the way we live our lives?

3. In the story of the woman caught in adultery, it says Jesus got down and wrote in the dust. What do you think he wrote?

4. Our dirt doesn't detour Jesus. What does that statement mean to you?

5. Jesus doesn't tell us to clean ourselves up before we come to him. He invites us to come just as we are. How should this effect the way we reach out to other people?

6. Jesus loves us just like we are, but he loves us too much to allow us to stay just like we are. Jesus wants to change us from the inside out to be more like Him. What area of your life do you feel like you need to surrender fully over to Jesus?

2) Who is the most generous person you know in the world today? Why would you describe them in this way? 

3) Most people say that if they win the lottery they will be more generous but statistically this just isn’t true. Why do you think so?
