GROUPS
BAPTISM:
If you have trusted Jesus, are learning to follow Jesus, and are willing to identify with Him publicly but have never been baptized, this is your next step. Not because we want to pressure you, but because Jesus calls his disciples to be baptized. Our next Baptism is September 13 at 10 am. Sign up at bridgewaycommunity.org/baptism/.
DISCUSSION GUIDE: July 26 – Susan Hoover
“The Beauty Of God’s Plans”
LIFE: How do you see God’s plans unfolding in your own life?
ENGAGE THE MESSAGE:
- Read Romans 5:6.
- What stories in the Bible show you the beauty of God’s plans? Share one that stands out to you and why.
- How is the gospel of Jesus different from other beliefs?
- How have you seen God do beautiful things in your own life?
- Has God ever surprised you by choosing someone the world may not choose or by using a situation the world might overlook? Share a story of how you saw this happen.
- Susan reminded us that, originally under the Old Covenant, only the high priests could enter a room known as the Holy of Holies and experience God’s Presence. Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross changed everything. What does it mean to you that we get to have a personal relationship with Jesus?
- How does your life have meaning, calling, and purpose in this very day, today?
MAKE DISCIPLES: How can you be prepared to share the beauty of God’s plans with someone else?
