Hi Small Group Leaders,
Today we are studying 1 Thessalonians 1:6-12 and Pastor Ray will preach on that passage on Sunday.
We made a video to help you prepare and/or show to your group. This video is much shorter than last week, but we would love to hear from you how we can help refine and make this more helpful for you.
With your group, please read 1 Thessalonians 1:6-12.
Watch Video Here.
1. What stood out to you when you watched the video/heard the sermon?
2. Have you ever bought an imitation handbag, watch, etc? How did that work out?
3. Do you feel comfortable being imitated by someone? Why or why not? Do we put too much pressure on ourselves to be perfect before someone can "imitate" us? Explain.
4. How does "imitation" resemble what you know about discipleship?
5. Talk about the impact this single, young church had around Asia Minor. What impact have churches made around here? Dream what could happen if we all imitated each other and the Lord?
6. Describe how their lives were changed because of an encounter with Jesus (vs. 9-10).
7. Do you get excited to "wait for the Lord"? Explain your feelings?
8. How can you apply this to your life? How will this week look different as a result of this passage?
