SERMON NOTES
SMALL GROUP DISCUSSION QUESTIONS
Spiritual growth happens when we receive new knowledge and then apply it to our lives. This always happens best in the context of community. Take time this week and engage in these additional scriptures and questions on your own. Then, discuss them with your Small Group.“As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend” Proverbs 27:17
What stood out to you most this week from the message? What did you learn?What was not clear? What else would you like to discuss?
GOING DEEPER
How does the setting of Caesarea Philippi add depth and significance to Jesus' question and Peter’s response?
Peter's declaration that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of the living God, was a pivotal moment.Jesus told Peter, “My Father in heaven has revealed this to you.” Share about a time you had a moment of clarity or revelation from God that was pivotal in your own life.
Jesus' response to Peter includes the promise to build His church, emphasizing its resilience against the powers of hell. How does this assurance shape your understanding of the church's purpose and significance?
Discuss the concept of self-denial, self-sacrifice, and following as essential elements of discipleship, as highlighted in Jesus' words. How do these principles challenge you in your walk with Christ?
