What If...Isampula

Want an easy-to-remember way to read and study the Bible? No matter which passage of Scripture you're reading, ask yourself these three questions: "What?" "So What?" "Now What?" We'll show you how!

WHAT? What is this passage about?

This week, we'll talk about how God wants us to help others heal. What had kept the man in this passage, John 5:1-9, from being healed in the past?

SO WHAT? Why does it matter?

• Why do you think Jesus chose to approach the man the way he did?
• When you read this passage, did you think of anyone you know who needs healing?

NOW WHAT? What should I do about it?

• Have you ever noticed someone who needed help, but you were not sure how to, so you avoided the situation instead? What was that like?
• What's something that discourages you from offering others help? What's something you find easy about it?
• Who's someone who could use your help finding healing today?
