Sunday Rewind

MUSIC & SCRIPTURE

Your Love Never Fails (Romans 8:28) – Your Love Never Fails by Jesus Culture

Blessed Be Your Name (Job 1:21) – Blessed Be Your Name: The Songs of Matt Redman, Vol. 1 

Lord of All (Psalm 97:5-6) – Attention by Kristian Stanfill

It is Well (Isaiah 66:12) – Public Domain (additional chorus by Hillsong Chapel)

I Stand Amazed (2 Corinthians 8:9) – North Point Live by Candi Shelton (North Point)

 

 

TEACHING: The Patriarchs, Part 6: Jacob’s Personality

Present decisions determine future consequences. Living for the present will destroy your future.

CLICK HERE FOR THE SERMON AUDIO & VIDEO

 

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS FOR SHEPHERD GROUPS

  1. What was one thing you found particularly interesting, insightful, helpful or difficult to understand from this sermon?
  2. How would you describe your personality? Have you ever taken a personality test? Was it accurate? Do you find your personality changed through the years? How so?
  3. Read and discuss Genesis 25:19-34. Who are the main characters in this account? What do you observe about them in this text? What are their main personality traits based on this account?
  4. How did Esau despise his birthright? What modern parallels of this do we see? What personal parallels do you see?
  5. How did Jacob “force the hand of God”? Have you ever done this? What happened?
  6. How do present passions blur the future? What decisions currently lie before you where you need to trust the goodness and sovereignty of God?
  7. How does the gospel enable God’s morality to flow through our personality? How does the gospel direct our morality?
  8. Are you involved in anything right now that you know could destroy your future? Spend some time praying with your small group and discussing an accountability plan for those situations.
