Talk It Over – Tough Choices, Pt. 1

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?

Matt Carder - November 30, 2014

Gentleness & Respect

• Listen

We naturally share and talk about things we are passionate about - whether it's pictures of our family on social media or talking about the newest hit TV series with friends. So why is it so awkward as a believer to share our deepest passion of following Christ? In this message we expound upon ways you can share the reasons for the hope you have in Christ with less tension and pressure - as well as more respect and gentleness towards everyone's life journeys.
