Leader Note: Here is brief summary of what we are covering Tuesday night. We are camping on our Fall Retreat theme of Follow. We are follower of Jesus. Many of us have responded to the invitation of Jesus to follow… but where is He leading? What is the payoff to following him? What is the promise? Is it being a better person? Is it life in Heaven after we die? Is it a pain-free/problem free life? What does Jesus offer to us as His followers?? I’ll tell you tomorrow night!
Getting Started
- What is the coolest app on your phone?
- Are you superstitious in any areas of your life? Explain.
- What are some words that make you cringe?
- If you could join a music group (past, present or future) which one would you join?
Digging In
- What did you write on your sticky note?
- Do you tend to be a worrier or do you deal with circumstances as they come?
- What circumstances, consequences, or possibilities do you fear? How does that fear limit your choices in life?
- What circumstances do you face right now that you need to entrust to God? What worries are you struggling with that you need to entrust to God? What can this group do to support you?
- In the message tonight, Jesse said, Jesus takes us to a place that says, you do not have to allow fear to take hold…What does that mean to you?
Discuss
How does our Trust in Jesus grow to a point where it overwhelms and overcomes our fears? How do we live a fearless life?
What does this verse say to you?
So do not fear, for I am with you;
do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. Isaiah 41:10
