SERMONS

"All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine,
for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man
of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works."
-- 2 Timothy 3:16-17

Prodigal
Luke 15:11-32

Questions to consider:
  • Vv. 11-12 What’s the younger son’s problem?
  • Vv. 13-16 What were the consequences of the younger son’s decision to collect his stuff and head for a distant country?
  • Vv. 17-19 What brought the younger son to his senses? When he came to his senses, what did he remember about his father?
  • Vv. 20 What do we learn about God from verse twenty?
  • Vv. 21-24 How do these verses help us understand repentance/what it means to turn to God?
  • Vv. 25-27 Why didn’t the older brother go into the house and find out for himself what was going on?
  • Vv. 28-30 In what ways was the older son just as lost as the younger son?
  • Vv. 31-32 What did the father want the older son to focus on?

Application:
  • Which son do you identify most with in this story? Why?
  • How has God spoken to you through this story today?
  • What changes in belief, attitude, or actions do you need to make based on what we’ve found in this story?
  • Who’s someone you can share this story with?

Forgiveness
Matthew 18:21-35

Consider:
  • Vv. 21-22 With whom is Jesus sharing this story?
  • Vv. 23-25 How is our sin like the first servant’s debt?
  • Vv. 26-27 Why did the servant ask for patience instead of mercy?
  • Vv. 28-29 What did the first servant’s words and actions toward the second servant demonstrate?
  • Vv. 30-31 Why were the other servants “greatly distressed”?
  • Vv. 32-34 Why is torture an appropriate penalty for not showing mercy?
  • V. 35 How do we forgive from the heart?

Respond:
  • In what ways are you like the unmerciful servant?
  • How has God spoken to you through this story today?
  • What changes in belief, attitude, or actions do you need to make (with the help of God and others) based on what we’ve found in this story?
  • Who’s someone you can share this story with?
