Abounding in Hope, Part 4: Hope in Our Conformity to Christ

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS FOR SHEPHERD GROUPS

  1. What stood out to you most in this message?
  2. If our part in the process of conformity to Christ starts with getting to know Him better, what are one or two steps you can take to do just that??
  3. Read Philippians 2. The life of Jesus Christ was characterized by submission to the Father. Why is submission such a challenge for us?
  4. Is there any way in which you are struggling with submission to God at this time in your journey?
  5. If conformity to Christ takes time, how have you seen God work to accomplish this in your life?
  6. Is there a particular challenge in your history that you have seen God use to make you more like Christ?
  7. Pray together for the ability to submit to God’s transforming process through suffering.
