WEEK 5 - Kingdom People

In the last week of our Kingdom Groups, we're considering the humbling yet encouraging reality that God works through us to bring his kingdom into people's lives.

That might seem like a lot of pressure, but God hasn't called us to do this on our own. He gives us the gift of his Holy Spirit to teach, guide and encourage us. To be "Kingdom People" doesn't mean that we are self-reliant, it means that we rely on God's Spirit and lean on him each day. We hope the week five video, the "Kingdom Next Steps" video and the discussion questions below help you wrestle with what this looks like in your life.

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

1. When was the last time you got to tell someone good news?  What was it and whom did you tell?
2. Has anyone ever tried to sell you something you weren’t interested in?
3. "We don't love people to convert them; we love people because we are converted." What do you see as the difference?
4. What is the biggest hurdle in getting to know people around you?  Why?
5. What do you think it means to be a person of grace?  Do you find it difficult or easy?  Why?
6. How do you think we become more and more gracious people?
7. Can you think of anyone that you know who could use some grace?
