Matt talked about Jeremiah 17:9. NLT
“the human heart is the deceitful and hard to understand.”

  1. How has your own heart deceived you in the past?
  2. Experience is a good teacher, share a time when you knew God was telling you to make a certain choice and you chose differently? How did that turn out?
  3. Like question 2, experience is a good teacher, share a time when you did choose what God wanted and how that turned Out?
  4. Proverbs 16:2 NLT says, “people may be pure in there own eyes but the Lord examines the heart”. How are you wired to make choices? (God, money, family, time) What influences your choices most?
  5. If you are comfortable enough, talk about the choices you are struggling with right now.
  6. Do you believe God has my best interest at heart?

God on the Spot

Unapologetic

Think of your favorite sports team for a moment. How did you become a fan of them? Most likely, it's because of the geographic region and/or household you grew up in. The same could be said for the "faith choice" of many. There's nothing wrong with this faith journey - it's just that the world around us expects dialogue with more substance than upbringing or "mystery". In this message, Matt introduces "Unapologetic", a series that simply asks the question, "Can you confidently share and dialogue about why you believe what you believe?".

From Series: "Unapologetic"

We live in a world where faith and Christianity are becoming less relevant and "believable" by the hour. With advanced science and certainty, who needs faith anymore, anyways? As followers of Jesus, we need to know why we believe what we believe to have any influence in our culture. It's easy to be a believer in Christian circles, but when you're in the minority and the hard, piercing questions come regarding your faith, do you know how to answer them in a way that they can be heard and not immediately dismissed? And perhaps more importantly, do you know how to listen and ask questions in a way that equally considers another's context?
