JOURNEY GROUP QUESTIONS
(1) When you think of the word “blessed” what do you think of? Why?
(2) Spiderman said “with great power comes great responsibility”, Jesus said “to whom much is given, much is required”. What do you think this might look like for us at The Journey as a church and individually?
(3) We are called to spread kindness and share hope as we follow the model of Jesus. People’s needs are both physical and spiritual. Read Mark 2:1-12. How do you see this play out in this account with Jesus?
(4) How can you “act” in love even if you don’t “feel” it? Have you ever done that before? If so, how did you “feel” afterwards?
(5) Read 1 Peter 3:15. What does this say about “sharing hope”? What does your story of God at work in you look like – how would you communicate it?
(6) Read 1 Peter 2:9. What does this say about followers of Jesus? In this passage it says “so that you may proclaim . . .” What do you think it looks like for you to proclaim the goodness of God (in the Greek it means “advertise”, like a giant living billboard)?
(7) What’s one way you can spread kindness and share hope this week? Commit to doing it this week! In Proverbs 11:24-25 it says that “he who refreshes others, will himself be refreshed”
