Message Discussion Questions

For the Week of July 20th, 2025

"A Faith That Drives Me To Action "

WARM UP:

1. What is the biggest scam you’ve ever fallen for? Or what is a fake product that you bought thinking it was real?

2. As you reflect on the talk from Sunday, was there anything that particularly caught your attention, challenged you, or confused you? Any personal “AHA Moment”?

KNOW IT:

1. Read James 2:14-20. How does James describe the relationship between faith and actions?

2. In what ways is this different from what many people assume faith looks like?

3. Read Matthew 7:24-27. What stands out to you about Jesus' teaching on obedience here?

SHARE IT:

1. The message said: “My behavior is a reflection of authentic faith.”

- What do you think this means?

- Can you think of examples in your life (or others’) where internal trust in God showed up externally?

2. Why is it possible to attend church, read the Bible, and still miss what it means to live out our faith?

3. Of the areas mentioned (generosity, integrity, forgiveness, priorities), which is the hardest for you to consistently apply your faith to? Why?

LIVE IT:

1. Are there any teachings from Jesus that you know but have been slow to do? What’s holding you back?

2. How do you think your life will look in that area 1 year from now if you don’t begin to put Jesus’ way into practice?

3. What is one “next right step” of obedience that God might be prompting you to take this week? How can this group support you as you take that step?
