RENEWING: Strong Men!

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, June 15, 2014. To get the most from these questions, go to http://www.graceplace.us and click on “Streaming.”  From there you can watch or 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)
How are fathers portrayed by media?
Why does it matter how fathers are portrayed?
Who is your favorite TV dad?

Scripture: (Read the word together – use different readers, different versions, just read it
1 Kings 2:1-4

Lesson: (Delve deeper into the Word and into the sermon using open-ended questions)
The Bible gives us many examples of fathers – both good and bad.  King David was not a great dad but, in his final days, he gave the future king, his son, Solomon, some good advice.  King David had learned these lessons the hard way.  Disobedience had cost him a great deal in his life. 

Why does it take strength to be obedient?
How had David learned this lesson?
What did David want his legacy to be?
How does obedience lead to prosperity?
Why is it important to watch how we live?
How is faithfulness and obedience linked?
What do you want your legacy to be?

Prayer: (Share each other’s burdens, become a community of believers)
