“Survive to Thrive” Message 12-19-21

Point: Creating a Jesus culture that doesn’t demand a Jesus response is exactly how Jesus began ganging the world one person at a time.

Scripture: Ephesians 6:1-4

Questions: 

1. What do you think it means to obey your parents “in the Lord”? Explain your answer.

2. What is the difference between “obeying your parents in the lord” and “honoring your father and mother”? Explain.

3. How can parents bring their children up in the discipline and instruction of the Lord? Give some examples.

4. Sermon Application:

 Conviction: How did the sermon (or this Scripture) challenge you personally? Be specific.

 Character: What about you needs to change in light of what you’ve learned? Be honest and specific.

 Competence: What is your plan for becoming a better parent and/or child? Share with the group what you are going to do, how you are going to do it, and when you are going to do it. Leaders – Write everyone’s plan down in a journal and come back to it next week during breakouts.
