GOD'S MISSION/OUR MISSION: I'm a Missionary

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, February 21, 2016.  To get the most from these questions, view the service by going to http://www.nashvillechurch.com and clicking 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 participating in a small group study, click on "Life Groups" at the top of www.nashvillechurch.com.

Fellowship:

Icebreaker:
Tell the group a story about a time when you were sick or hurt.  (Give each person a time to share their story.)

Scripture:
John 4:39-42

Lesson:
Christians are scared to death of “witnessing” to others.  We are afraid we will be questioned about our Bible knowledge and fall short.  The truth is all our mission is to be able to complete this sentence:  Once I was __________________________ and now I am _______________________.  God’s mission is to draw people to Him and free them from their sin.

How do you know when it is appropriate to share your story?
When have you shared your grace story with someone?
Why is it important for some to hear YOUR story?
How can we learn to tell our story?
Tell your grace story with the group.  “Once I was _______________; now I am ________________.  (Give each person a time to share but only if they are comfortable doing so.)


Prayer:
