But Jesus Said (Sermon on the Mount)

LifeGroup Study Guide – Week 11: The Light of the World” 

 

Stepping In: Getting things started!

1 – What was one of your favorite things from Pastor Brian’s message?

 

2 – Share a time when you experienced a very real clash of light and darkness.

 

Building Up: What is God Saying?

Read Matthew 5:14-16—Then answer the following questions:

1 – “You are the light of the world.” In reality, Jesus is the light, and we reflect His light, like the moon reflects the light of the son. What are some practical ways we all can do this?

 

2 – What is the power of Jesus’ picture of a city on a hill or a lamp in a home?

 

3 – What are some ways we might hide our light (putting it under a bowl)?

 

4 – How does God get the credit or glory when we do good works?

 

5 – Share another verse Pastor Brian used that really helped you understand this. 

 

Living Out: How do I obey?

**First of all, we’ll be taking a break for the next two weeks, and then we’ll get back to our Sermon on the Mount study.

1 – “We were never meant to live in the dark; but to thrive in the light.” What are some specific ways you can live and thrive in the light this week? How can you better prepare yourself to reflect the light of Jesus?

2 – “When darkness meets light, light always wins.” How are you going to bring the light to the darkness this week?

3 – We’ll be shining the light in a very real way Easter Weekend. Please keep praying for that and talk about where you’ll be serving!!

4 – As a LifeGroup, you’ll be doing a SERVICE PROJECT together. Keep your eyes and ears open for opportunities to serve those in our Valley. When you come up with a plan, please let us know about it by emailing: john@community.cc.
