Elemental: S2 - End of Week 1

SMALL GROUP STUDY GUIDE

INTRODUCTION
The following is a guide to help facilitate discussion. Feel free to add or subtract or change questions to fit the conversation, and pray for the Spirit to lead in all things.

OPEN
Share a time when you experienced growth. What did you learn that was new and helpful? What did you let go of that seemed to not work for you anymore? What was that process like?

HEAD
Read Psalm 46:10; Isaiah 55:9; Psalm 119:105; Joshua 24:15; Colossians 1:17; and Mark 2:27 together and share any wisdom, insights, or questions in response to the reading.

As you reflect on these passages, what do you think is their theme or common thread?

Psalm 46:1 proclaims an incredible promise over our lives. What difference does it make in your life to know that Jesus is Lord over all the chaos? That He is ever-present to help when you’re in need? What difference does/did that make for you during this Elemental sermon series?

How has The Word helped you discern between “right” and “wrong” paths? Has it helped you on this journey?

Does knowing that God’s ways and thoughts are “higher” than ours help strengthen your faith or does that leave you with more questions?

HEART
What does it mean for you to “choose God.” How is that choice evident in your life, words, and actions? Do you think others can see that clearly or would they ever question your allegiance?

When you say “yes” to serving God, what are you saying “no” to? Are those choices easy or hard?

HANDS
How have you noticed the Holy Spirit moving in your life the past few months? How can you give credit or acknowledge that work as you move forward through the remainder of the year?

When Jesus deconstructed the Pharisees’ understanding of the Sabbath, He was quick to reconstruct and offer a new way. What “new way” has He offered you in your process?

If you haven’t found a “new way” yet…how can this group pray for you and help you?

LIVING WORDS for YOUR WEEK
“Christ is the visible image of the invisible God. He existed before God made anything at all and is supreme over all creation. Christ is the one through whom God created everything in heaven and earth. He made the things we can see and the things we can’t see–kings, kingdoms, rules, and authorities. Everything has been created through him and for him. He existed before everything else began, and he holds all creation together.” Colossians 1:15-17
