Questions for Small Group Discussion and/or Personal Reflection

Scriptures to Review: 1 Corinthians 13

Questions:

–        Read 1 Corinthians 13 either individually or out loud with your group. Share which word, phrase, verse stands out to you the most.

–        Who has expressed “warmhearted” love to you? How did they do it? In addition to listening, what are some ways our church can extend love that is patient and kind to those who do not yet have a relationship with Jesus?

–        Looking at 1 Corinthians 13:4b-6…Is there one of these characteristics you struggle with more than the others? In what ways have you found victory/deliverance from any of these?

–        Looking at 1 Corinthians 13:7… Is it ever ok to walk away from a relationship? Is that always unloving?

–        As a group, come up with some ideas of practical ways our church can respond to this Grace/Truth series. How do we not become closed off and insulated? What are some ways we can get uncomfortable and show Christ’s love to those who may want nothing to do with church? Please write down your ideas and email them to the pastors.
