Life Group Questions

  • Have someone read Romans 12:14-16. Have someone else open your group in prayer.  


  • What stood out to you in Kirk’s sermon this week? 


  • The text has a few phrases that talk about behaviors or actions that naturally flow from transformation. They are: 


Bless those who persecute you.  

Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn. 

Live in harmony with one another. 

Do not be proud but be willing to associate with those who are lowly. 

Do not be wise in your own eyes. 

Which of these challenged you?  


  • What’s the root of that challenge? (Ask the group to help you dig if needed) 


  • What does the Gospel say about this? (Ask the group for help if needed) 


  • What opportunity to grow do you see in these behaviors? 


  • Wrap up your group in prayer, covering what was shared in Questions 3-5. Pray specifically about what was named and encourage your group members to pursue their answer to Question 6. Let's be the people God is transforming us to be!
