Challenge:

1. How have you understood the Christian calling? What meanings has that word taken on for you?
2. Discuss your understanding of the difference between a general calling and a specific personal calling
3. Take some time to share with the group about a time when you struggled with managing your time, how did you work through that? What has been helpful? What is not helpful?
4. In 2 Corinthians 6 Paul paints a picture of our Holy and separate lives, how is that possible in our daily lives? Can you share how your life looks different from those who are in the world?
5. Which analogy in 2 Tim 2 is resonating with you the most? And how is it challenging you to make a change in your life this month? Take a moment to write down other people’s responses and commit to praying for one another for this shift to take place.

Clarify:

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”.
