Grow Group Questions - April 13, 2025


Announcement:   Can your group participate in Neighbors Day together? Assign a point person from your group! Sign up through our website during group time! 

Icebreaker: Would you rather wash someone’s dirty feet or clean their bathroom?  

Sermon Discussion: 

  • When you hear the word “serving,” what’s the first thing that comes to mind?
  • Serving is not something that we do, it’s a way we approach our lives.
  • What’s the difference between serving occasionally vs. living a life of service?
  • Serving within the church community is part of experiencing the fullness of God’s design.
  • Do you see church as a place to consume or a place to contribute? Why?

    Going Deeper: Read Philippians 2:5–8.

    • How do you usually determine what to say yes or no to when someone asks for help or service?
    • What role does prayer or discernment play in that process?
    • Jesus served out of compassion, humility, and with his entire life.
    • Which of these comes most naturally to you?
    • Which one is the biggest stretch?
    • Are you currently living a “life of service” or simply fitting acts of service into your schedule? How can you move more to living a life of service?
    • Is there an area of your life where you feel God is inviting you to serve but you're hesitant? What’s holding you back? (Fear? Time? Insecurity? Burnout?) 

      Next Steps: 

      • What’s one thing God might be stirring in your heart through this conversation? Is there a way you can use your gifts to serve God’s kingdom?
