Talking Points:
  • Make a habit of talking to God, building a relationship with him like any other person.
  • Read the Word devotionally every day, and set aside special times for a deeper dive.
  • Connect to God’s people in three environments: large (church), small (group), and individual (mentoring).
  • Giving should be periodic, proportionate, and a little bit painful.
  • Jesus called it disciple-making, and it’s about personally helping someone pursue God.
Discussion:
  1. Name one good habit you had as a kid. Did you have a habit that was hard to break when you were young?
  2. Give yourself a grade on each of the five habits above. Which one are you most eager to improve? Why?
  3. Read 1 Thessalonians 5:17. What does prayer look like in your life? What have you learned about the power of prayer?
  4. Read Hebrews 10:25. How does community help us in our pursuit of God?
  5. Read 2 Corinthians 8:7. What do you think Paul meant by “excel in giving”? What could it mean for you today?
