Discussion Questions

3DQ - 3 discipleship questions to ask each other: What is God saying to you? What are you going to do about it? How can I help?

  1. What did the Holy Spirit highlight to you in the passage or the sermon?
  2. Matt 4:23 speaks about “Jesus proclaiming the good news”. What are some helpful ways we can live this example out more actively and authentically in our lives? And what are some unhelpful ways we should avoid. 
  3. 1 Cor 12 speaks about the spiritual gift of healing. Does anyone feel like they have this gift? What are your reactions to this supernatural gift? How can we all pursue this gift more intentionally in our lives? 
  4. What has been your experience of “the Kingdom coming with power”? 
  5. How can we pursue the supernatural power of the Kingdom in our everyday lives? 
  6. In what ways can pressing into the power of the Kingdom lead to pride or despair? (i.e. what should we be aware of and cautious of). 
  7. Matt 4:25 makes a direct link between “the Kingdom coming in power” and people choosing to follow Jesus. What prayers can we pray as we seek more of this in our lives?
