Reflection/Discussion Questions:

  1. If someone asks you in an elevator to describe grace, and you only have 30 seconds, how would you describe it?
  2. Pastor Bryce described grace as God’s unmerited favor towards us, in us, and working through us. As you look back on your life, how have you seen God’s unmerited favor?
  3. If the Bible describes you as God’s “handiwork” or “workmanship”, how does that help illustrate God’s relationship with you and His desire for you? Go a step further and explore how important this is in relation to your understanding of who God is?
  4. When is it hardest for you to be gracious with others, and why?
  5. Take a moment  to write down and share with the group your plan for modeling “Great Grace” to others.   Will you demonstrate this at work, home, in your marriage, or as you volunteer?

Clarify:
Does anyone need clarity on something? Are there any big God questions you are wrestling with?

Celebrate:

Through the Bible in one Year

Join us in reading through the entire Bible in one year. Each day of this plan guides you through passages from both the Old and New Testaments, allowing you to see connections between the history of our faith, and the fulfillment of God’s redemptive plan. Readings average four chapters in length, so it is posible to do. When you use the YouVersion Bible App, you can even have the app read the Bible text to you – very useful when you are in the car or otherwise occupied with your hand.

All you need to do is click the link to the Bible Plan, which should lead you straight to the Bible app. Your two options are now (1) to read the plan on your own, one day at the time. Or (2) you can make it more fun and rewarding, by sharing the plan with one or more friends, and then even “Talk about it”.
