Luke 10:25-37

First listen to the sermon (posts Sun. afternoon). Then use the ideas below to help you and your group apply what the Lord is teaching you.

Share about a good neighbor that you have had (or currently have). What made them a good neighbor? Have you had bad neighbors? What made them bad neighbors? :)

• What was one thing from this week’s gathering that impacted/challenged me?

• Treasuring God: How would I describe, in my own words, what Christ has done for me? How does that change my view of God?

• Being Transformed: What does this passage surface from within me, that I need Jesus’ help to change?

• Loving Others: Who is a “neighbor” that I have recently “passed by on the other side?” What step can I take to move toward them this week?

• Pursuing Unity: What can we do together, to grow in our “neighborliness” toward others?

Thank God for Christ’s finished work on my behalf. Pray that my ongoing belief and trust in Christ would lead me to be a good “neighbor.” Ask the Lord to reveal to me the people who I have overlooked failed to love well and for wisdom to know how to change that. Pray that we would be individuals, families, groups, and a Church that evidences our love for Christ by how we are “neighborly” towards those around us. Amen!
