This Weeks ?’s

Leader Hints are designed to help guide a leader to some information that we want to “tease” out of the group.  They are not there for you to directly read to the participants.  People are significantly more likely to remember things they said or came up with, so your goal is to help direct them to that answer.
 
FINAL NOTE:  Our goal is to get to the [APPLICATION QUESTION] to help work with people through how to apply what God is doing in their life.

     

    INTRO:

    • Icebreaker: Spring Break is next week! Does anyone have any plans?
    • Last Week’s Application Question: Did anyone intentionally share stories of God’s faithfulness with others, particularly younger generations?

    REBUILD THE SERMON:

    • The time of Judges is at an end. How did Israel get to this point in their history?
    • Why did Israel want a king?
    • Reflecting on Samuel and Saul’s stories, what led to their different paths, and how might their choices relate to our own decisions?
    • Why was Saul picked by the people of Israel to be king? Do you see anything similar in today’s world?
    • Discuss Samuel’s reaction to the Israelites’ request for a king. What does it reveal about human nature?
    • How can we recognize and respond to moments when we’re tempted to reject God’s authority and follow our desires instead?
    • Reflecting on Jesus’ message of the kingdom of God, how does it offer hope in the face of human rejection of God’s rule?
    • How can we actively align our lives with God’s authority and prioritize Him above all else?

    Application Question: 

    • Considering God’s kingdom and our response to His authority, what “checks and balances” can you implement that can help align your life more closely with God’s rule?
    • Take up prayer requests and pray together.

    Submit a Prayer

    Does your group have a prayer request that you think would be helpful for our care ministry team to know about and be praying for?  Submit it below:

    Our church has an INCREDIBLE care ministry team.  They regularly pray over the needs in our church and contact those who need care.  If you need prayer, please submit your request here.

    Prayer Request Submission

    Prayer requests remain on our list for two weeks. If the need is on going, please resubmit or contact our prayer team.

    Would you be interested in learning more about joining our care team and praying for the needs of those in our church and caring for them?

    I would like to have someone follow up with me and personally pray for my need with me. You will receive a phone call or text from one of our team member if you select this option
