The following questions are to be used as a study aid for
the sermon preached by Pastor Tommy Dove at the Grace Place on Sunday, April
13, 2014. To get the most from these questions, go to
https://soundcloud.com/#graceplacehermitage and listen to the service first.
These questions can be used in your private Bible study
during the week or as the topic for a small group study. For more information
on hosting or leading a small group study, click on "GP Small Groups"
under "GP Ministries" at www.graceplace.us.
Fellowship: (Break bread with your community, share life
from last week, announcements for next week)
Icebreaker: (Get to know your fellow believers a little
bit better using this week’s topic)
What is the biggest crowd you have seen for a celebrity?
Have you ever worked for someone important?
What reaction have you experienced to someone of
importance?
Have you ever embarrassed yourself around someone
important? How? Who?
Worship: (Optional for communities who have the time and
talent)
“Total Praise” Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir (Find on GP
Community Groups Facebook page)
Scripture: (Read the word together – use different
readers, different versions, just read it)
Matthew 21:1-11
Lesson: (Delve deeper into the Word and into the sermon
using open-ended questions)
We might embarrass
ourselves by our reaction to a celebrity but never worry about being too “over
the top” in your praise of our Lord.
Jesus deserves extreme praise!
How did Jesus’ disciples react to Jesus’ entry into
Jerusalem?
What emotions do you have when you hear the story?
What is the most public praise you have ever experienced?
What reaction does extreme praise elicit?
Why is there a stigma to unabashed praise?
How do you respond to Jesus showing up in your life?
When have you experienced extreme praise personally?
Prayer: (Share each other’s burdens, become a community
of believers)
