MISSION RENEWAL: Marriage Maintenance

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, September 18, 2016.  To get the most from these questions, go to http://www.nashvillechurch.com and click on “Media” to either stream the current service or listen to a previous sermon.

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:
In which social media platforms do you participate?
Do you post or just read everyone else’s posts?
How do you feel about memes?

Scripture:
Ephesians 5:15-32

Lesson:
One slightly annoying aspect of Facebook is the constant over sharing of memes.  You know, the jokes, stories, quotes and songs that pop up on your news feed.  The most annoying are the dessert recipes.  No one ever shares a vegetable meme.  Memes are defined as a belief, trend or behavior that is spread from generation to generation.  Did you know memes are in the Bible?  Yep, “Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs.”  Our mission is renewal!

How does A.D. 2016 differ from society of A.D. 40?
Why do we need to take advantage of every opportunity?
How can we understand God’s will for our life?
How does being filled with the Holy Spirit make you happy?
Why should we submit to other Christians?
How should we talk to one another?
How are we to treat the non-Christian?
How does our behavior model the Church?
What is God’s will for the Church?
