This Guide is available for download here.

Life Group Discussion Guide :: Sunday, May 12, 2013 (JXG) 
Sandy Lake Wesleyan :: Pastor Shawn
Great Grace | Extend (Week 4)



Remember, this Guide is not intended as an exhaustive list of what can be discussed, but is best used as a guide to help your Group process what God is teaching them. Read through the discussion points below and 
prayerfully consider what the Holy Spirit would have you work through.

------------------------------------------------------

 Be sure to pray for, encourage each other, 
and share the victories God is giving your Group.


This Week: (These questions will follow the rest of the series and should provide wide-ranging discussion for your Group on an ongoing basis. Be mindful of the opportunity to call each other and journey to ‘more’ as a Group. If the challenge to become more like Jesus isn’t felt in your Life Group, it’s probably not happening anywhere for your Group members.)


What Scripture/portion of Scripture resonated with you the most? 
What does the Holy Spirit seem to be saying to you through His Word?
Here are the Scriptures used this morning:
  • Matthew 18:21-35
  • Matthew 6:14-15
  • Philippians 3:7-8




What aspect of grace came alive to you this week? 
What does it look like to take that and live it out in the week(s) ahead?




What did you hear/discover that was new or fresh for you this week? 
What is God calling you to do or be with what he has shown you?



What did you wish had been unpacked a little more in the message? Why? What insights does the Group have into those questions or areas you hoped to go deeper into?



What is currently your greatest challenge in knowing, receiving, embracing, and extending grace (these are the four themes of the current series)
Pray for each other as these challenges are identified. 




What was this week’s ‘prayer time’ opportunity or ‘So what? Now what?’ opportunity?  
How can you participate in it as a Group? 
How can your Group pray for you as you seek to do these things on your own?


WHAT DOES IT LOOK LIKE TO LET GRACE DEFINE US? TO BE A PEOPLE MARKED BY GRACE?
