2. Was there an action step that you continue to think about or are walking in that came from this study? If there was a response to the book of Matthew for you or your family what do you think that should be?
3. When you think of the Great Commission, what comes to mind and how do you think the church is doing with this command?
4. Share with the group the one place/group/area you feel called to go and make Jesus known and be making Disciples.
5. Take this opportunity to write down one person or family that you can be praying for to take that step to follow Jesus, and begin to make a plan on how you would disciple them if and when they make that decision. Commit them to prayer for this next week and believe together for God to open the doors.

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”.
