Rooted: A Study of Deeper Faith in Colossians, Part 11

September 21, 2014 Mike MinterSermonsColossians

Character counts. For better or worse, human character always impacts history. But divine character, led and influenced by the Holy Spirit, always impacts eternity.

Rooted: A Study of Deeper Faith in Colossians, Part 11

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS FOR SHEPHERD GROUPS

  1. What was one thing you found particularly interesting, insightful, helpful or difficult to understand from this sermon?
  2. Read and discuss Colossians 3:12-14. What do you see about God? What does this tell us about man?
  3. What is the significance of "chosen" and "holy & beloved" (v. 12)? What are we to "put on" as a result? Why does this matter?
  4. What does it mean to be a person of character? Who comes to mind for you when you think of a person of good character? How has their character impacted your story?
  5. How do the accounts of Abraham, Joseph and Mordecai illustrate the principle that divinely-inspired character impacts eternity? What other examples from scripture can you think of that illustrates this principle?
  6. Do you ever feel like your life is stuck in a rut or doesn't count? How does the gospel address that?
  7. How does the gospel inform, impact and shape our character?
  8. Spend some time in prayer about the things you've discussed. Thank God that we matter to Him and ask Him to be glorified in our character as we become more like Jesus.
