I LOVE THAT! Growing Up in Love

The following questions can be used as a weekly recap in a small group setting or as a personal study aid for the sermon preached by Lead Pastor Tommy Dove at the Grace Place on Sunday, July 30, 2017.  Past sermons are available offline at www.nashvillechurch.com.  Click on “Media” to view the video.
Weekly Warm-up:
What was your favorite part of back to school?
What was your least favorite part of back to school?
How would you feel about going back to school as an adult?

Weekly Overview:
Learning to love as God loves takes a lifetime or perhaps an eternity.  We get glimpses of God’s love but, for the most part, we never understand the true depth of His love.  Have you ever had faulty windshield wipers during a thunderstorm?  You can sort of see but not as clearly as you want or need to.  Our understanding of God’s love is cloudy.  But, someday, when we stand face to face with God, all will be made clear.  I love that!
Weekly Discussion Questions:
Read 1 Corinthians 13:11-13

How can you spot an immature Christian?
What skills do even seasoned Christians need to work on?
Why should maybe all Christians call themselves “practicing” Christians?
What about love would you like to understand better?
How can we learn to love more like Christ?
Why is love greater than faith and hope?
What would you do differently if you loved more?
How would those around you benefit from more love?

Group Prayer:
Pray for a deeper understanding of love.
Pray for those you love.

Pray for those you don’t yet love.
