DISCUSSION QUESTIONS FOR SHEPHERD GROUPS

1. What was one thing you found particularly interesting, insightful, helpful or difficult to understand from this Sunday?
2. What do you believe defines you?
3. Read and discuss Psalm 20:5, Psalm 139:13, Jeremiah 1:5,  James 1:13-15, Romans 5:12, Romans 3:23, Luke 6:45, Psalm 37:4 and Psalm 115:3-8. What do these verses tell us about us? What patterns or trajectories do you notice? What do these verses tell us about God?
4. “Because of sin, our greatest desire is to please ourselves.” How have you seen this to be true by observation and experience?
5. “All Christians are counselors.” How do you react to this statement?
6. “The heart will always struggle to be satisfied as it looks for something to worship.” Have you found this to be true? What examples can you think of?
7. Are there ways in which you are currently trying to fill an eternal longing with a temporal thing?
8. Are there any areas where you are suppressing the truth in unrighteousness by justifying ungodly behavior?
9. What do you long for the most?
10. “Anxiety is a liar.” Is there an area of your life where you need to take your feelings and set them next to the truth of Scripture? Spend some time together in prayer about this.
