SESSION FOUR<br />

SCRIPTURE STRENGTHENS YOU<br />

72 73<br />

CREATE A<br />

NEW STORY<br />

IN THIS SECTION, TALK<br />

ABOUT HOW YOU WILL<br />

APPLY THE WISDOM YOU’VE<br />

LEARNED IN THIS SESSION.<br />

1. Dean shared that people of other faiths refer to Christians as<br />

“people of the book.” What does that mean? Does it accurately<br />

describe you? Are you a person of the book?<br />

4. Each of you in the group has different gifts and abilities. How<br />

could you serve this group—perhaps with hospitality, organizing<br />

an event, worship, teaching, or inviting new people? Have<br />

each person share what their gift or passion is, and how they<br />

could use it to strengthen and build up the group.<br />

2. How does the habit of reading and memorizing Scripture impact<br />

your life? What is one step that you can take to “internalize”<br />

God’s Word?<br />

3. Have you ever had someone try to manipulate or control you by<br />

using Scripture? Have you ever tried to do this to someone?<br />

5. Spend some time praying about those you know who might<br />

respond to a simple invitation: to come to a weekend experience,<br />

to visit your Life Group, or even just to have coffee and<br />

talk. Ask the Holy Spirit to bring people to mind that you can<br />

pray for.
