Fellowship:

Icebreaker:
What real art have you seen?  (Paintings, sculptures, museums, etc.)
What real sports have you experienced?  (Pro games, iconic locations, games played in, etc.)
What real music have you enjoyed?  (Famous singers, bands, legends, etc.)

Scripture:
Matthew 15:8-20

Lesson:
Have you ever heard someone referred to as “the real deal?”  There is an abundance of fake people, even fake Christians, in this world.  When people encounter a real Christian, they can tell there is something different about them.  Let’s get real!  Jesus said that blind people cannot lead blind people.  We need to become real people in order to reach real people.

Why was Jesus so upset with the Pharisees?
What made Jesus’ definition of “unclean” so different?
What does it mean to be “the real deal?”
Why is it important for us to be real people?
Why does a person need to get real with his/herself first?
How do we get real with Jesus?
What part does worship play in our real life?
How can we get a real prayer life?
